While I am leaving the @ukcollegeoflaw faculty on July 1 to join the faculty of Tulane Law, I am delighted to see that it has hired Judge Van Tatenhove as its new dean. In my opinion, he is well-qualified for the position. @courierjournal aol.com/articles/uk-faculty-…

UK faculty opposed naming federal judge dean of law school - AOL

The University of Kentucky named U.S. District Judge Greg Van Tatenhove as the dean of its law school, despite objections from law faculty.

I am at the stage of this process where I am considering standing in front of the Wildcat Lodge and holding a picture of Dan Hurley in the air until Mitch personally asks me to stop.

Governor Beshear’s politically-driven veto of SB150 is insanity.

And perhaps successfully. The hammerlock of Faculty's of Education on teacher certification has to go. And the sooner the better. More than enough is more than enough: courier-journal.com/story/ne…

Is Kelly Craft copying another Republican's playbook in the Kentucky governor's race?

Republican gubernatorial candidate Kelly Craft and her running mate, Sen. Max Wise, drew scrutiny for recent moves they made on education policy.

Biggest achievement of law school—getting featured on Ipse Dixit.

I just posted an "archival" episode of @IpseDixitPod. In 2017, @ukcollegeoflaw students @Barrett_Block & @ZachAtwell12 composed a "civil procedure" song titled "The Court is Yours," based on Nas's "The World is Yours," which was recorded by Elijah. Enjoy. shows.acast.com/ipse-dixit/e…

Seconded. After all, this is Kentucky. Not Ohio.

An observation: It is appalling that the (otherwise) great state of Kentucky prohibits its citizens from exercising their 2nd Amendment right to shoot fish. I think we need a constitutional amendment to rectify this injustice. @Barrett_Block @senatemajldr

My first semester, I got a B+ in civil procedure. But my professor liked me "anyway" & asked me to be her RA the following semester. She was the person who helped convince me to become a law professor. Good professors don't care about your grades. You've already proven yourself.
