U. of Washington Provost Is Named to Nike Board
Phyllis Wise, provost of the University of Washington, has accepted a position on the board of directors of Nike, which last year signed a 10-year contract to provide the university's athletics department with all its footwear, apparel, and some equipment. The Associated Press reports that some students are not happy with Ms. Wise's decision. They have been urging the university to pressure Nike to stop its reported abuses of workers.
