Wisconsin university chancellor claims he was fired for appearing in porn videos

Joe Gow says that his free speech rights were violated after the Universities of Wisconsin board of regents decided to fire him

Former University of Wisconsin-La Crosse chancellor Joe Gow has said he was fired by the school's governing board because members were uncomfortable with him and his wife producing and appearing in pornographic videos.

The Universities of Wisconsin board of regents, which oversees 11 regional campuses, voted unanimously during a hastily convened closed meeting on Wednesday evening to fire Gow.
