One month into his tenure as interim dean of Emory University School of Law, Judson Graves has stepped down for personal reasons, according to the law school. James Hughes Jr., Emory Law’s associate dean for academic affairs, will pick up the baton while the school conducts a national search for a new dean to succeed Robert Schapiro, whose term ended in July.
“Jim Hughes is a proven leader who has been part of the Emory Law community for 25 years,” said Emory provost Dwight A. McBride in an announcement. “His extensive leadership experience, ties to the Atlanta community, and devotion to the law school and to Emory will be tremendous assets in this time of transition as we prepare ourselves to identify a new dean to lead Emory Law into its second century.”
