Summary
Dean Camille Carey’s future at the University of New Mexico School of Law hangs in the balance as student groups, alumni, and civil rights organizations demand she not be rehired, citing her administration’s alleged failure to prioritize New Mexico and Native American applicants. Former dean Sergio Pareja defends her, arguing admissions decisions are made by the committee—not her—and that backlash may stem from frustration over the Supreme Court’s affirmative action ruling. Critics, including the New Mexico Hispanic Bar Association, dispute diversity claims and highlight a toxic environment under Carey, citing faculty turnover and unresponsive leadership. Pareja dismisses turnover as retirement-related and insists the school is thriving. Provost Barbara Rodriguez will decide soon, with a national search looming if Carey’s contract isn’t renewed.
