New Dean Johanna Kalb Transitions to USF Law School

Reviewed by Todd Vandersline / sanfranlocal.org

Johanna Kalb has become the 20th dean of the USF School of Law in San Francisco, starting her tenure on July 1. She is the second female dean in the law school's history, which was established in 1912. Prior to joining USF, Kalb served as the first woman dean at the University of Idaho College of Law in Idaho, which has campuses in Boise and Moscow.

During her time at the University of Idaho, Kalb oversaw growth in the law school's incoming classes, making them the largest and most diverse in the college's history. She led projects such as acquiring a new building for the Boise campus, implementing plans to improve inclusion and belonging at the law school, and achieving the college's most successful fundraising years.

Kalb also focused on enhancing academic success and bar preparation programs, resulting in a 10 percent increase in bar passage rates for recent graduates. Her accomplishments in Idaho have led to her new role as dean at USF School of Law.
