Expected UW president choice is a Republican donor

The Seattle Times announced that University of Utah president Mickael K. Young is the expected choice for UW president.  The search was conducted by an outside firm in TX that was hired by the university rather than by a search committee of the faculty.

There is still time to protest this.  I would like to add a personal opinion that acting president Wise should be selected because (a) she is a prominent scientist and Young has no science and technology background at all, (b) promoting Wise would break the glass ceiling for Asian American women with a Ph.D. in science and would be inspirational.
