Founding Dean of Ave Maria Resigns, But Remains Active

After being on medical leave for more than a year, the founding dean of Ave Maria School of Law has stepped down.

President Bernard Dobranski has resigned, the law school announced today, and acting dean Eugene Milhizer will now be acting president as well, reports the News-Press of South Florida.

Dobranski plans to continue on the faculty and to remain active in the law school's strategic planning and development. Dobranski was part of a team that engineered the school's controversial move from Michigan to Florida.
