No-confidence vote in Nancy Rothwell could trigger vote from board of governors if successful
Students at Manchester University have launched a revolt against their vice-chancellor over the university’s mishandling of the coronavirus pandemic and have demanded she step down over her “complete failure of management”.
The Manchester students’ union will hold a vote of no-confidence in vice-chancellor Nancy Rothwell, the first time in its nearly 200-year history such a motion has been triggered. If the vote is successful, it will be reported to the university’s board of governors, which will decide whether to take further action.
