Cribbing now from President Bollinger's message announcing the search committee:
Law School Dean David Schizer will be stepping down at the end of this academic year when his ten-year term reaches its conclusion. His outstanding service to the School and to the broader University merits our gratitude and admiration. Columbia Law School continues to be one of the very finest in the world, and this is in no small part due to David's dedication over the past decade. We all look forward to opportunities to thank him for his service during the course of the year ahead. For many, and mostly obvious, reasons I am deeply and personally committed to the School's ever-increasing success, especially at this important moment of transition.
I am very much looking forward to hearing the results of the search. It's obviously in very capable hands.
