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 Kentucky Deanship.  David will be making the first on-campus visit on February 26; the final candidate is scheduled to visit on March 9.  (One of the other finalists is my former colleague, Cynthia L. Fountaine.)

Memphis announced today that it has selected Interim Dean Kevin Smith as its Dean — David was one of the four finalists.  David also apparently 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.
