Abstract

This essay uses 22 years of administrative experience as an Associate Dean, Interim University Athletic Director, and Dean of a School of Law as a platform from which to provide ideas and examples about how one balances administrative duties with family obligations. Because the essay was part of the University of Toledo College of Law's annual "Leadership in Legal Education Symposium VII" its focus is upon the role of a law dean. However, the concepts are equally applicable to those holding or considering other law school or university administrative positions.

Keywords: dean, associate dean, interim athletic director, administrator, family, family life

JEL Classification: K1
