Just thought some of you might find that of interest. It will be announced tomorrow and go “ker-plop” into the Friday news dump.
Was it the Herald story? See http://bostonherald.com/news/regional/view/2011_1020sources_umass_law_dean_resigns_over_credit_card_misuse/srvc=home&position=1
Hard to say, but Ward was no friend of the private counsel court appointed bar, at least in my opinion. It will also be interesting to see what the “nationwide search” turns up for the new president – if they aren’t already chosen, that is.
President Ward’s stated reasons were the reasons we are hearing more and more: spending more time with his family, health, the commute is too long, the job was exhausting.
Tell me, what would you like to see in the next law school president, and what would you like to be the focus of the culture of the only public law school in our state?
