The Thomas M. Cooley Law School recently announced that Joan Vestrand, professor of law and assistant dean at the Auburn Hills campus, has been promoted to the position of associate dean and will lead the school’s Ann Arbor campus. 

“Dean Vestrand has played a vital role at Cooley already through her distinguished work in redesigning the school’s professionalism and ethics program,” said Don LeDuc, president and dean of Cooley. “This is such an exciting time in Cooley’s history and Joan’s extensive experience and enthusiasm make her an outstanding choice to head the new campus in Ann Arbor.”

Classes will commence at the Ann Arbor campus in September 2009.

“I’m excited to lead Cooley’s efforts in Ann Arbor,” said Vestrand. “Students travel from near and far to attend Cooley and we believe that a campus in an internationally known location like Ann Arbor, one of America’s leading university and business communities, will be attractive to prospective law students.”

Vestrand joined the Cooley faculty in 2002.
