But what faculty are not is under the illusion that they are "valued" in the search for a new System president. Without a single faculty representative on the search committee, UW Board of Regents President Drew Peterson can tell the press all he wants that, "We’re very focused on making sure faculty, staff, students have tremendous engagement in this process."
