Our faculty are leaders in scholarship, teaching and service, as detailed in our faculty profiles. Here are highlights of their recent achievements:

The University of Georgia School of Law has been fortunate to have many professors who remain vital and engaged members of our faculty for decades, according to School of Law Dean Peter B. "Bo" Rutledge. "These professors provide the foundation for the learning environment that makes our intellectual community so special," he said. In a few weeks, Mike Wells, the Carter Chair in Tort and Insurance Law, will retire after more than 45 years of dedicated service. To help commemorate this milestone, a few former students have chosen to honor him by endowing a new faculty support fund.
