As Minneapolis–Saint Paul is in two separate states, the official place of birth has to be either Minneapolis or Saint Paul or any of the other 184 communities. -- Eingangskontrolle ( talk) 20:04, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
Any indication she will be made the full Secretary? 74.69.11.229 ( talk) 20:06, 27 October 2012 (UTC)
I decided to "be bold" and start a UW-Madison section for her. Unless some smoking gun surfaces in the next couple of weeks, her approval by the full Board of Regents is mostly likely going to happen, and she will be the next Chancellor. Entrybreak ( talk) 19:12, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
When does she start? And who's in charge of Commerce after her? 74.69.121.132 ( talk) 21:23, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
Excuse me Lizabeth but your comment is rude and uncalled for. It DOES matter who is in charge of the Department of Commerce and since she was chosen as chancellor of UW-Madison over a month ago, it would be nice to know who's replacing her. I find your comment outrageous, abusive and bordering on a violation of Wikipedia's civility policy, as stated: Incivility consists of one or more of the following behaviours, especially when done in an aggressive manner: personal attacks, rudeness and disrespectful comments. Yours would fall under all three. If you do so again I will report you to the editors. Have a good day. In the meanwhile, who's the Deputy Secretary replacing her? 74.69.121.132 ( talk) 13:28, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
There was a controversy at UW Madison about a rock which had been referred to by some racist term 100 years ago in one newspaper report.
Students from the Black Student Union demanded the rock be removed because of how it had named 100 years back. After a long back and forth, Blank did remove it, and defended the decision. This action was widely ridiculed - I believe it should be in the article.
