Minow’s academic bent has been reflected in her vision for the school’s future, as she hopes to shape the curriculum by drawing from multiple disciplines and linking them more closely to the practice of law.
While the Law School has traditionally served as a pipeline for students to prestigious corporate positions, the recent financial crisis resulted in a steep decline in job offers and provided an impetus to rethink the role of the profession.
As dean, Minow has prioritized the integration of the Law School with other parts of the University by facilitating cross-school teaching and exploring future avenues for collaboration with Harvard Business School and Harvard Kennedy School.
The recent appointment of Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Annette Gordon-Reed to a joint position at the Law School, the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, and the Faculty of Arts and Sciences is emblematic of Minow’s efforts to build intellectual bridges.
Keeping a foot in the classroom allows her to maintain a feel for the school’s pulse.
