Governer Strickland has appointed Ohio State University College of Law Dean Nancy Rodgers as the Ohio Attorney General for the next 5 months. To fill this temporary position until a new AG can be elected in November, Dean Rodgers has taken a leave of absence from her duties at the University.

Dean Rodgers is a highly respected attorney who serves as the Moritz Law School Chair in Alternative Dispute Resolution. She was recently honored and acknowledged at the Ohio State Bar Association convention in Columbus, Ohio. Click here to read an article from cleveland.com's blog.
