The University of Toledo Law Review has an esteemed tradition of collecting essays by law school deans on a variety of topics concerning the nature and future of legal education. The most recent instantiation is Volume 57, No. 2, WInter 2026, which you can find here. It contains essays by Nicholas Allard, Founding Randall C. Berg, Jr. Dean at Jacksonville University College of Law (and former Joseph Crea Dean at Brooklyn Law School) on the weighty responsibility of training the next generation of lawyers; by Joshua Fershee, Dean and Professor of Law at Creighton University School of Law, arguing that “[t]he law school that serves modern society will have a renewed focus on humanity, community engagement, and adaptive learning as central pillars of legal education in the 21st century”; by Brian Pappas, Chancellor of Indiana University South Bend, offering four pillars for contemporary legal education: “Access and Opportunity, Excellence and Accountability, Community Impact, and Affordability”; and by Charles H. Rose III, Dean and Professor of Law at Ohio Northern University Petit College of Law arguing that “law schools must act as ‘civic engines,’ renewing their social compact by bridging legacy and innovation in the service of justice, democracy, and civic renewal. Its an impressive collection. Congrats to all.
