Campus Colleagues, 

I am writing to inform you that the search for a permanent dean of the J. David Rosenberg College of Law (Rosenberg College of Law) will resume soon with a comprehensive, national search process. The goal is that the college’s next dean will join us by July 1, 2025, or sooner. 

The Rosenberg College of Law prepares graduates to excel as responsible members and leaders of the legal profession, Commonwealth and nation who are dedicated to the highest standards of ethics, excellence and professionalism. The college serves the community and the profession by enhancing public understanding of law, engaging in law reform, delivering continuing legal education and providing legal services to the indigent. This commitment is made possible through the hard work and passion of the Rosenberg College of Law community and its supporters. 

The first step in this process is to form a search advisory committee comprising faculty, staff, students and alumni. As part of our efforts to enhance communication, transparency, inclusion and shared governance, the Office of the Provost is seeking nominations for the search advisory committee. All recommendations are confidential. 

To nominate yourself or someone else to serve on the search advisory committee, please click here. Nominations are due by noon on Wednesday, Sept. 25. 

If you have any questions about the process, please contact Shavonna Ross, director of operations (shav.ross@uky.edu). 

Thank you in advance for your valuable input. We appreciate all that you do to advance Kentucky. 

Robert S. DiPaola, M.D.  
Provost
