I was traveling last month and managed to miss this dean news nugget. St. Johns Law Professor Paul Kirgis was named the new dean of the University of Montana School of Law. Kirgis, a Washington & Lee Law graduate, will take over this July. Kirgis is the son of Rick Kirgis, who served as dean of W&L Law from 1983-1988. Decanal royalty!

Terrific choice for Montana. Paul is a class act who leads by example – great teacher, great scholar.
St. John's loss is Montana's great gain! Paul is a wonderful colleague, teacher, and scholar. I've enjoyed working with him at St. John's. He will make a great dean.
