Chicago Tribune: Chicago State University president: Next President Wayne Watson booed by students, faculty
Retiring City Colleges chief and the other finalist have been criticized as local political insiders
As students and faculty booed, Chicago State University trustees Wednesday picked Wayne Watson, the retiring City Colleges of Chicago chancellor, as the university’s next president.
The choice came after weeks of controversy at the South Side school, with the faculty urging Gov. Pat Quinn to stop the board from picking one of the two finalists, and students holding several protests about those they described on T-shirts as “lousy candidates.”
