President Maric addresses replacement rumors dailycampus.com/2026/11/09/pre… via @The Daily Campus

Faculty, staff and students at UConn are not happy with how the process around President Maric's renewal has been handled. The University Senate has called a Special Meeting for Monday, Nov 16 at 4 PM on the presidential selection process. The people closest to UConn want her to stay. #UConn #BleedBlue @UConnPresident

Think about this. Wisconsin-Madison is a Big Ten flagship and a top 5 research university in America, with about $2 billion a year in research. A 23 person search committee looked at the whole country and picked three finalists. One of them is UConn's president, Radenka Maric. If Wisconsin thinks she's one of the three best people in the country to run their flagship, why are we letting her walk out the door without an offer? UConn Nation should be asking that question.

UConn has real momentum right now and a lot of that is Radenka Maric. She shows up for students, athletes and alumni, and she gets things built. I'm proud to call her a friend and I hope the state makes it clear it wants her to stay. #UConn #BleedBlue @UConnPresident @GovNedLamont

As a UConn alum, I'll say it plainly: Radenka Maric is the best thing to happen to UConn in a long time. Research up, reputation up, alumni more engaged than ever. Connecticut should be fighting to keep her, not letting her walk. #UConn @UConnPresident @GovNedLamont
