Controversy at University of Wisconsin: Joe Gow Fired Again Over Adult Film Career

The University of Wisconsin has officially fired Joe Gow, the former chancellor of UW-La Crosse, once again, after revoking his tenure due to his involvement in producing pornography. Despite his attempts to argue for his position and invoke free speech rights, the Board of Regents unanimously voted against him. The decision concludes Gow's controversial desire to continue teaching following his dismissal from the chancellor role, making this the second termination he faced due to his adult film career. The case has ignited debates around academic freedom and the boundaries of professional conduct within educational institutions.
