This is terrific news! Liz Magill is a great choice to lead Georgetown Law.

Regarding the controversy—Elise Stefanik ambushed Magill at that hearing with the evident goal of smearing her as an antisemite, which she is not (obviously). UPenn's loss is our gain.

Everything Rosa said! This is simply wonderful news for our law school. (And major thanks, too, to Josh Teitelbaum for being such a fantastic interim dean.)
