UW System hires presidential search firm involved in 2 problematic hires elsewhere

After a search for the next University of Wisconsin System president collapsed last year because of complaints over how it was conducted, a UW official said the firm involved in the failed search would not be hired to assist in the System’s second attempt to hire a new leader. The System is instead working with a different executive search firm that has been involved in at least two problematic searches of its own.
