Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: Law dean ouster spurs outrage at Duquesne
Duquesne University’s abrupt ouster yesterday of law Dean Don Guter produced surprise and anger on campus and led one major donor to say he will withdraw support from the school.
Without giving a reason, university leaders informed law faculty yesterday morning that Mr. Guter, dean since 2005, was out. A statement said Ken Gormley, an associate vice president and member of the law faculty, would serve as interim dean and that Mr. Guter, a former Navy judge advocate general, would remain on the faculty.
