Dean Search Announcement: Montana

From an email that I received earlier today:

The University of Montana invites applications and nominations for a Dean to lead its School of Law as it begins the second century of its distinguished history. Founded in 1912, the School of Law is an established leader in legal education, preparing students for serving people in the practice of law through effective integration of theory and practice. Beyond preparing students for practice, our curriculum emphasizes areas of law significant to the Rocky Mountain West including natural resource law, environmental law, and Indian law. At a challenging time for legal education, the success of Montana’s model in training and placing lawyers has earned it recognition as one of the best-value law schools in the nation. Montana is one of a handful of law schools to attract significantly more applicants this year than last. 
 
The successful candidate must hold a Juris Doctor degree, or its equivalent, from an ABA-accredited law school, demonstrate the ability to lead the School of Law’s faculty, staff, and students, and have the following additional qualifications:

- Distinguished professional achievement in legal practice;

- Successful administrative experience, including personnel supervision and financial administration;

- Strong listening, communication, and consensus-building skills;

- A commitment to legal scholarship; and

- A commitment to diversity.
 
TO APPLY: Visit http://umjobs.silkroad.com/ to view full description and apply online. Candidates will be asked to upload: a statement of interest; a current resume or C.V.; and contact information for at least three professional references.   Review of applications will begin on August 1, 2013; application review will continue until the position is filled.

Must have moral flexibility to monetize the cognitive biases of 21 year olds, and in so doing saddle them with over 100,000 of high interest non-dischagrable debt, in exchange for sweet, sweet, federal loan dollars.
