Our readers may be interested in a recent article published in the Chronicle of Higher Education that discusses being a good dean or a mediocre dean. Although it is written by a pair of former education deans, it is relevant to the lives of law school deans as well.
I noted the point about how important certain "dispositions" are for a good dean. Perhaps these dispositions explain in part why some of our own ASP'ers have gone on to being highly successful deans! The link is here: A Tale of 2 Deans. (Amy Jarmon)
