Dean Carey Stays at UNM Law | Santa Fe News

The University of New Mexico’s School of Law has decided to reappoint Dean Camille Carey after a heated debate fueled by protests and conflicting data. Provost Barbara Rodriguez, after careful consideration, chose to keep Carey on amid concerns from alumni and advocacy groups about declining local applicants and lack of Native representation. But faculty and admissions committee members countered with data showing increased New Mexico applicants and steady growth in Chicano enrollment, ultimately swaying the decision. Carey expressed gratitude for the chance to continue building on the school’s legacy, while Rodriguez pledged to work together to strengthen the law school’s impact on New Mexico.
