He was not of Rex's caliber but few will be. However, Dean Hafen was not incompetent and IMHO, better than the current nomination in terms of credentials and experience. I'm not speaking of Professor Gordon but the current flavor of the month. The new appointment seems to be really watered down fare. Dean Rasband. http://www.law2.byu.edu/news/item.php?num=400 There's nothing terribly wrong with him, Harvard law grad, Judge Wallace clerk and a few years at Perkins Coie, but there's nothing that compares with Rex Lee and the school seems to be going in the opposite direction. Instead of procuring more prestigious professors, we seem to have less and less.
