The chancellor at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point wound up with a traffic citation when she visited Madison to hear Governor Jim Doyle speak last month.

A police report says Chancellor Linda Bunnell hit a parked SUV and left the scene without telling anyone. She released a statement yesterday saying that when the accident happened, she was in a hurry to get to Doyle's budget address and planned to follow up with police and her insurance company later that evening.

Meanwhile, a witness called police with her UW car's license number, and an officer found the car and left a note. When she found the note, Bunnell called police and told what happened.

She got a $172 citation for failure to leave her name at the scene of the crash.
