lion of thi' incident would have
resulted in thn administration's
support.
“But by ordering a lengthy
investigation, that is an exam
ple id undermining the authori
ty of tiie dean," Holland said
Holland's belief in a strong
deanship extended to his ad
vice to his successor, whomev
er that person may be
"Mv advice would be for any
candidate to have lengthy dis
cussions with faculty, to get
their expectations, get firm as
surances from University ad
ministration of support for the
lavs school and support for au
thority of the dean,” he said.
"While a dean is in office,
the University administration
should support the dean in-ev
ery conceivable respect, every
decision the dean makes, and
should not allow anyone to
speak to it on behalf of the law
school apart from the dean,”
Another factor, money'prob
lems, not only hurt Holland's
deanship," but threatened the
health of the law school itself.
When the ABA threatened to
remove the law school's ac
creditation in 10<)() because of
poor funding, poor facilities
and a high student to-facultv
ratio, Holland said tlie he and
the school were caught in the
middle
“ The people who are in a po
sition to respond to those con
cerns, ultimately the Legisla
lure, quilt! frankly don’t give a
damn about what the ABA
thinks about the law school,
and art; not going to be per
suaded or influenced to pro
vide more funding,” he said.
We feel like the American
troops lut by friendly fire The
ABA expressions with dissatis
faction have had the effect of
damaging this law school with
out the effect that they were in
tended to have to elicit more
funding
Ironically, Holland is leaving
the deanship just as the fund
ing crisis is easing In May, the
ABA announced it would ac
cept law school upgrades, and
would back oil until its meeting
next spring

tlie Legislature, and the Legisla
ture has not provided us with
the resources needed to fullill

hinges "
Holland, who taught for more
than 10 years at Indiana Uni
versity before going into ad
ministration, said he looks for
ward to going buck to teaching,
which he will do at the law
school when a successor is
found
"I enjoyed teaching, I was
pretty good at it, and it's a bet
ter wav to spend your time
than shuffling budget papers,
particularly when the numbers
are in the rod," he said "Also,
when you're .1 faculty member
you don't have to l>e .is careful
about what you say to every
body
In the July :tl press release

Holland added that the
