Federal Judge Steps Up To Be Law School Dean - Above the Law
"As a graduate of the J. David Rosenberg College of Law, this institution has long meant a great deal to me. Gregory Van Tatenhove recently accepted the offer to lead the state's largest law school, according to an email sent to students from UK Provost Robert DiPaola."
"I want to congratulate my friend, Judge Greg Van Tatenhove on his appointment as the new Dean of the University of Kentucky Rosenberg College of Law. As an alumnus of the College, I am thrilled that Judge Van Tatenhove will be stepping into this role. He has been an outstanding judge and leader."
"During her time as dean, the school navigated COVID, managed to hire 10 new faculty members, and climbed to #6 on National Jurist Magazine's Best Value Law School list. That's a hell of a pair of shoes to fill."
The University of Kentucky College of Law has appointed Gregory Van Tatenhove as its new permanent dean following a lengthy search that began in 2023 when previous dean Mary J. Davis stepped down. Van Tatenhove, a longtime federal judge in Kentucky and alumnus of the law school, brings significant experience to the position. During Davis's tenure, the law school achieved notable accomplishments including hiring ten new faculty members, navigating the COVID-19 pandemic, and ranking sixth on National Jurist Magazine's Best Value Law School list. Van Tatenhove's appointment has garnered support from colleagues and alumni, including Congressman Andy Barr, who praised his commitment to the institution's legacy.
