CHICAGO (AP) — The University of Illinois at Chicago’s faculty Senate has taken a vote of “no confidence” in the leadership of its outgoing chancellor.

University officials say the 44-9 vote in favor of the resolution against Paula Allen-Meares was taken Thursday. The resolution comes as the university is conducting a search for a new University of Illinois president as well as a new chancellor for the Chicago campus. Allen-Meares’ tenure in the post is scheduled to end in January.
