The Dean and Family Life

Abstract

This article is part of Toledo’s Deans’ Leadership in Legal Education Series. It notes what can be the all-consuming nature of a law school dean’s job and the challenges this can pose to family life. It details both the challenges I faced and methods that I employed as dean of Regent University School of Law in an attempt to lead the school well, but more importantly to be a successful husband and father.
