The University of Wisconsin Board of Regents has dismissed Roberto Coronado, a professor in the Medical School who pleaded no contest last March to sexually assaulting three young girls.
Coronado, who is serving an eight-year jail sentence, had a tenured faculty position in the UW-Madison Department of Physiology paying $137,641 per year.
The Board of Regents terminated Coronado with a unanimous vote in closed session on Friday.
