“The Badger Herald has had an acrimonious history with the former Dean of Students. Most glaring was her signature on an advertisement condemning the Herald for exercising our free speech rights during the Horowitz controversy last spring. This past fall she equated our actions with student violence and sexual assault in a letter to student leaders. Less visible to students - but infinitely frustrating to our reporters - was her refusal to return calls and e-mails.

“We would like to wish Dean Chavez luck in her future endeavors. As the University of Wisconsin establishes criteria for the next dean, a commitment to free speech should be just as important as a commitment to diversity.”
