Tax Prof David A. Brennen (Georgia), currently completing a two-year stint as Deputy Director of the Association of American Law Schools, is one of four finalists for the Memphis Deanship. According to the student newspaper, "[t]he search for a permanent dean at the U of M is in its concluding phases, said University Provost Dr. Ralph Faudree. 'We’re in the final stages, and we hope to make an announcement soon,' Faudree said." (David is the co-editor of our Nonprofit Law Prof Blog (another finalist, Rick Bales of Northern Kentucky, is co-editor of our Workplace Prof Blog).) (Hat Tip: Brian Leiter.)
David apparently also is a candidate for the Florida International Deanship (see The Faculty Lounge, Miami Herald), although the search process there is somewhat unusual (The Faculty Lounge, The Faculty Lounge II, PrawfsBlawg I, PrawfsBlawg II). For a clarification from Florida International, see here.
