    CHAMPAIGN - Faculty at the University of Illinois say when the governor picks new university trustees, they want to have some input. The university's Coalition of Trades and Labor Unions sent Governor Pat Quinn a resolution asking that he consider their opinions when picking a new slate of trustees.

    Quinn asked for the resignations of all current trustees because of the U of I clout list scandal. Three already resigned, six are still holding on to their positions. The governor says he will act on those six this week.

    Quinn says he has a list of 140 people who want to replace the current board.
