The University of Wisconsin-La Crosse Chancellor, Joe Gow, was fired by the Board of Regents due to his involvement in the creation and posting of explicit videos with his wife.
The decision followed revelations of his conduct causing significant reputational harm to the university.
The controversy began with Gow paying a porn star to speak on campus and escalated when his own participation in explicit content creation surfaced.
The Board expressed alarm and disgust, deeming his actions inconsistent with his role.
Despite arguing for his right to free speech, Gow was placed on paid administrative leave and faces a review of his tenured status.
