The man recommended to become the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater’s next chancellor has a 23-year career with the university, having worked his way up from assistant professor to interim chancellor.
Richard J. Telfer, 59, was recommended on Friday to become Whitewater’s next chancellor by UW System President Kevin P. Reilly and a special committee of the Board of Regents. The full board is expected to act on the recommendation in June.
