Andrew “Drew” Peterson is currently Vice President of External Affairs and Corporate Communications for TDS Telecommunications Corp. (TDS), the seventh largest wireline communications company in the U.S. In addition to his professional leadership, Mr. Petersen serves as an at-large member of the American Cable Association Board of Directors and Director for Park Bank, the longest-serving community bank and financial institution in Madison, Wisconsin. He was previously appointed by Governor Walker to the Wisconsin Technical College System Board in 2012, and currently serves as Board President. In that capacity, he has served on the UW Board of Regents for the last two years as statutory delegate for the technical college system. Mr. Petersen graduated from Ripon College in Ripon, Wisconsin and earned his Masters of Business Administration from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
“Drew’s continued leadership will be an asset to the Board of Regents,” Governor Walker said. “His background in communications, as well as his experience serving as President on the Wisconsin Technical College System Board will be a great benefit to the Board of Regents as they work with the UW System in addressing their needs to ensure collegiate education in Wisconsin remains strong.”
