"In everything we do, we are standing on the shoulders of giants,'' said Dean David M. Schizer earlier this year, introducing a ten-minute video about Columbia Law School to celebrate the Sesquicentennial.
He and six other living deans described how their administrations prepared graduates to practice in a changing, and increasingly globalized, world. Those deans are Michael Sovern (1970-1979), Benno Schmidt (1984-1986), Barbara Aronstein Black (1986-1991), Lance Liebman (1991-1996), David Leebron (1996-2004) and Albert Rosenthal (1979-1984).
