  Dean (education) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Although most high schools are led by a principal, some (particularly private preparatory schools) refer to their chief authority as a dean.
Although usage differs from one institution to another, a dean is usually the head of a significant department or collection of departments within a university.
Almost every American law school and medical school refers to their highest ranking administrator as a dean, and most have several assistant or associate deans as well (such as a Dean of Academics and a Dean of Students).

 Boston.com / News / Politics / Dean's education enemies list
Politically, Dean had a chance to join with Democrats in Congress this month to fight for the money for public schools that Bush has left out of his budgets, breaking the promise he made when the reform was enacted more than two years ago.
Dean decided to reiterate a position he has held for a long time, adding fresh Democrats to his enemies list and continuing to make it hard for those Democrats who remain uncommitted to see a reason to support someone so casually contemptuous of their hard work.
Dean is indeed the front-runner, but his temperament and behavior are keeping the rest of the field alive.

 washingtonpost.com: Transcript: Democratic Presidential Debate in Iowa
DEAN: I actually don't believe that, because I think, given the time that's elapsed, we could have done the proper thing, which George Bush's father did, and put together a coalition to go after somebody who was a regional threat but not a threat to the United States.
DEAN: I am told that Governor Bob Ray, who was one of the most distinguished governors of this state, had his records sealed for his entire lifetime.
DEAN: I think if somebody is gay and they write me that, and they don't care to have that information disclosed to the public, that's their right.

 Howard Dean on Education   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
Dean did not lead the way for either bill; the legislature passed the bills in response to rulings by the Vermont Supreme Court.
The President's education bill is the second largest unfunded mandate (after special education) in the history of federal education legislation.
Dean as well as some school officials refer to the gap in federal support as an "unfunded mandate" - buzzwords that Republicans used for decades when Democrats ruled Capitol Hill and passed laws without adequately compensating states for having to carry them out.

 CNN.com - Dean proposes $7 billion higher education plan - Nov. 13, 2003
Higher education costs have caught the attention of many of the Democrats seeking their party's presidential nomination.
Last week, Dean touched off a storm of criticism when he said he wanted to be "the candidate for guys with Confederate flags in their pickup trucks." He belatedly apologized for the remark.
Posters on the campus about Dean's appearance also had the image of the Confederate flag, and the words "sponsored by Young Democrats." But the president of Young Democrats at Dartmouth, Paul Heintz of Cambridge, Massachusetts, said his group had nothing to do with them.

 Byron York on Howard Dean & Race on National Review Online
Dean might have said that his cabinet did not look like America — in a phrase famously associated with a Democratic president — because Vermont does not look like America.
Dean might have further explained that, although his motives might be good, the simple demographic facts of life in Vermont meant that he could not have much experience working with a racially diverse population.
And not only could Dean not really defend himself, he apparently felt he could not attack Sharpton, who by any standard should be the easiest candidate to attack.
