As a gift to the outgoing provost, President David Skorton proclaimed that the dining room in the A.D. White House would now be called the â??Carolyn â??Biddyâ?? Martin Room.â?
The announcement was made yesterday at a special event, where about 150 staff, faculty, students and alumni gathered under a large, white tent on Bailey Hall plaza to bid farewell to Martin, now chancellor of University Wisconsin-Madison, her alma mater.
