  1. I guess all good things have to come to an end! It sounds like Jack Guttenberg has made some great changes in his six years at Capital law school. I wonder who will replace him. Those are some pretty big shoes to fill! I hope his next several years are great; ending a tenure is a life-changing event! www.burgessbilt.com
