Why the UW System is failing

I figured out why the University of Wisconsin System is doing so badly. Their approval ratings are in the dumps. Tuition has been skyrocketing with no improvements. Education standards are low. Ex-cons are working as professors on the taxpayer's dime.

And I figured out why.

The president of the UW Board of Regents is named Kevin Reilly.

The president of NBC entertainment is Kevin Reilly.

When the president of your board of regents has the same name as a network president who just oversaw its worst ratings year ever, you're going to have problems.

Trust me. It's a scientific fact.
