The reappointment is for a five-year term starting July 1, at which point Guthrie will have completed 15 years in the role.

I know that he will continue to inspire and support our faculty, students and staff to achieve our bold ambitions in the years ahead.
“Under Dean Guthrie’s leadership, the Law School has continued to advance and excel in critical areas including the ethical application of artificial intelligence, access to justice and political economy issues,” Vanderbilt University Chancellor Daniel Diermeier said. “I look forward to his continued impact on making the Law School a preeminent choice for faculty and students around the globe.”
