The chancellor of the University of Wisconsin?s flagship campus is sticking to her guns.
In what many had predicted would be a contentious meeting of the system?s Board of Regents, Carolyn A. (Biddy) Martin defended her support for a plan that would break the Madison campus away from the rest of the Wisconsin system, creating a new governing board and granting the flagship unique flexibility. The plan is expected to be part of a budget proposal Gov. Scott Walker, a Republican, is set to unveil next week.
