On Campus: After crash, Nass pushes for review of University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point chancellor

State Rep. Steve Nass is asking the University of Wisconsin System to review the conduct of UW-Stevens Point Chancellor Linda Bunnell in the wake of a report that she failed to tell police immediately that she had caused a car crash on the UW-Madison campus.

Bunnell was in Madison to attend Gov. Jim Doyle’s budget address and, in a car registered to the UW Board of Regents, hit a parked car and proceeded to the event without notifying police.

Nass said the crash and other behavior by Bunnell, including dissastifaction among students and the school’s fundraising arm, warrant review by UW System President Kevin Reilly.
