LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (TB&P) — The University of Arkansas will soon begin a search for the next dean of the School of Law following the announcement that Margaret Sova McCabe will step down at the end of the academic year, according to a Tuesday news release.

McCabe has served as the dean since 2018. According to the release, she will leave the position on June 30, 2022, but remain on faculty as a law professor.

An interim dean will be named for the academic year 2022-23, the release shows. Interim Provost Terry Martin will convene a committee to search for the next dean. Details are expected to be announced in the coming months.

“I would like to thank Dean McCabe for her leadership and recognize the School of Law’s many accomplishments under her direction,” Martin said. “I’m very thankful that she will remain on faculty at the U of A, continuing to share her immense expertise with our students moving forward.”

McCabe, the law school’s 13th dean, is the third consecutive woman to serve in the role.
