Ex-Law School Dean Sentenced To Nearly A Decade Behind Bars - Above the Law
Briefly

Edward Rene, a former assistant dean at Texas Southern University's Thurgood Marshall School of Law, was sentenced for theft related to a scholarship scheme and for sexual performance by a minor. His criminal actions, which included inflating scholarships to steal funds and engaging in unlawful acts with a minor, reflect serious misconduct. Texas Southern University responded positively to the sentencing, expressing a commitment to ethics and accountability, emphasizing that Rene's actions do not represent the university's culture or values.
