OBJECTION!!! Dean Chemerinsky is the dean of UC Berkeley School of Law, not Irvine. While he was the founding dean of UC Irvine School of Law, he left for Berkeley. As January 1, 2018, L. Song Richardson became the dean of Irvine, having assumed the role of interim dean on July 1, 2017. At the time of her appointment, she was the only woman of color to lead a top-30 law school. On July 1, 2021, she became the 14th president of Colorado College. Currently, Bryant Garth is the Interim Dean; Irvine doesn't have a dean at this time.
One a side note, when I was in law school, I discovered a math error in the 4th edition of his con law textbook. I called his office and asked to speak with him. Much to my amazement, I was connected to him and told him what I found. He was very pleasant and had copy of his book handy (which greatly impressed me, if I ever write a legal text book that gets as widely used, I would carry it with me everywhere, even to the bathroom). He looked at the page in question. After some use of the calculator, he agreed with me and told me he'd correct it in the next version. Sure enough, the 5th edition, the current version, has been corrected. So far, I believe this is my biggest contribution to Constitutional Law.
