Law School Lateral Hiring: Faculty Moves 2012

Fourth Update – August 8, 2012

The law school dean search situation is starting to firm up, so it's time to start tracking lateral moves again this year.  Historians may want to consult my lists from 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011. 

Each year I offer a few caveats.  This year, they are: a) the list is currently woefully incomplete; b) it will at times contain errors (which I will try to fix quickly), and c) I won't update the list frequently enough for some readers.   If you have information or corrections, please email me at thefacultylounge@gmail.com.
