Evers Appoints Campaign Supporters to UW Regents

Par for the course.

The appointments include Karen Walsh, of Madison, and Edmund Manydeeds III, of Eau Claire, both of whom will serve seven-year terms that begin May 2 and run through 2026. Evers also announced the appointment of a UW-La Crosse student.

Walsh spent more than 20 years working at UW-Madison. She and her husband donated $10 million to the UW School of Medicine and Public Health in 2015 to increase the size of the UW Hospital emergency facility. She currently serves as the director of a local family foundation dedicated to advancing human and animal health and welfare.

Campaign finance records show Walsh donated about $14,000 to Evers’ gubernatorial campaign, according to the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign.

Manydeeds previously served a term on the board from April 2010 through May 2017 under an appointment by former Democratic Gov. Jim Doyle.

    Why does Gilligan’s Island come to mind?

    Are there B&S posts analyzing the connections of Walker’s appointments?

    This article is not about Walker or what may or may not have happened yesterday. Is Evers rewarding his donors or not? Certainly looks that way to me.

    Guinness, so when Owen says “par for the course” he’s only talking about the Evers administration?
