Creighton University has named a new dean for its law school.
Marianne Culhane becomes the school’s 10th dean and first woman to hold the position.
Her appointment is effective Jan. 1.
Culhane has been on the faculty since 1977, teaching a variety of commercial and business law courses. She served as interim dean from June 2007 to July 2008. She frequently writes and speaks on consumer bankruptcy and has been active in legal reform.
The post came open earlier this year, when then-dean Eric Chiappinelli stepped when he was appointed as an assistant to the university’s president.
The Creighton University School of Law enrolls about 470 students annually.
