Amy Adelman, who has served as Emory’s interim senior vice president and general counsel since September 2022, will return to the role of deputy general counsel. Adelman led the Office of the General Counsel through a period marked by extensive change and uncertainty in higher education and health care on a national scale. She developed and maintained a dynamic and talented team of attorneys for Emory and is deeply involved in managing a range of multifaceted legal issues, including those related to open expression and campus climate. She led and positioned the OGC to thrive in the years ahead.
“I am grateful to Amy Adelman for her tremendous commitment and leadership as interim senior vice president and general counsel for nearly two years,” Fenves says. “Her guidance and knowledge, honed over two decades at Emory, were relied upon time and again, especially as the university navigated many complex issues. I am pleased that Amy will continue to provide Emory with essential legal guidance as deputy general counsel.”
