The Stetson Law community is excited to welcome two individuals to the faculty as part of its Bruce R. Jacob Visiting Assistant Professor (VAP) Program<\/a>. Named for celebrated Dean Emeritus Bruce R. Jacob<\/strong>, this program invites aspiring academics to gain full-time teaching experience while benefiting from extensive mentorship and support from tenured faculty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the program\u2019s typically two-year period, these visiting professors are invited to produce meaningful scholarship<\/a> while immersing themselves in Stetson Law\u2019s vibrant campus community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fall of 2025, two scholars begin their time as Bruce R. Jacob Visiting Assistant Professors: Babafemi Fatade<\/strong> and Andrew Milne<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
