But from the thinking of one individual. Still, I have we need to do more in this regard. We should been in legal education for two decades now, and a develop closer ties with State government, involve law school dean for 12 of those years, so it's natural ourselves more extensively in public education about for me to have some developed thoughts on what law and the legal system, and, more generally, reach any good law school, and in particular ours, can and out and touch more people in ways that will assist should do. them in understanding and dealing with the legal I would take a careful, thoughtful look at our basic system more effectively.

We can't, and won't, do everything and to lawyering in the first year, and in particular overnight, but we need to have a sense of direction, focus on professional responsibility during that and to proceed according to it. We need to think impressionable time in their careers. I would also long and hard about the future, and, while being return to a more structured curriculum, one with a somewhat skeptical about visionaries, have a vision larger number of required courses, especially in the of that future and the role we can and should play second year. I would further ensure that some in it, and in bringing it about. We should seek to exposure to skills training is provided for all shape as well as react to change—in legal education students before they graduate. And, finally, I would and more broadly. Educational institutions are intensify our growing efforts in the international and typically averse to risk-taking, as, for the most part, comparative law fields. literacy in the 21st is the legal profession. We tend first to look century will require a better understanding of the backward, and then assume that the future will flow legal systems of other countries, greater familiarity more or less logically from the past. That's often the with multinational transactions, and an informed soundest and most sensible course, but not always. realization of how interdependent a world we live in. We also need to lead, and to be willing to take risks in doing so. Academic freedom, properly understood, Next, I would ask, what else can and should we protects not only the individual teacher and scholar, seek to do, in terms of our academic programs. I but also the institution and what it does, from would start by assuming that we can't, indeed improper external influences. We should, as shouldn't, attempt to do everything. Limited universities, be willing to seek to lead in certain resources and the need for depth and distinction in societal directions. And, as law schools, we should what we do choose to do argue against that. We actively address the deficiencies in the legal system— should develop several areas of concentration and through scholarship and service—and attempt to emphasis, I believe, that build on existing strengths provide constructive solutions for them. This may among our faculty and in our institutional history, result in some periodic tension between the 3

A presidential search is always a time of people and with ideas. They're both combined in a uncertainty for a university. But the job should be an unique sort of way in an educational institution. One attractive one to lots of capable and experienced of the most important things a dean does is to people. There's no reason to assume that the search attempt to ensure that each person hired brings not committee won't do a good job.

and, along with my responsibility to seek and provide sufficient resources for the enterprise, I think that what I do to facilitate this process is both significant and satisfying. I do a lot of bar-related work, and am involved with legal education across the country in several ways. It's part of my job, I believe, but also something worthwhile doing. I also try to stay in touch with my own interests, especially constitutional law, and do some occasional scholarship. I wish there were more time for that, and for teaching, which I miss very much. I enjoy it, and the close contact with a cross-section of the student body that goes along with it. But I simply don't have the time to do it, and do it well. Finally, I value creativity very highly. There is unfortunately Thomas Cavendish '53, the 1988 College of Law Distinguished little opportunity, as an administrator, for doing Alunnus, with fellow National Council member Betsey Case '68. much that is creative—except indirectly and vicariously, through others.
