Wendy C. Archibald named assistant dean at BYU's J. Reuben Clark Law School

Wendy C. Archibald is the new assistant dean for students and internal relations at the J. Reuben Clark Law School at Brigham Young University.

Archibald graduated from the J. Reuben Clark Law School in 1993. She is a partner in the law firm of Archibald Mahoney, and she worked for three years as a staff attorney for U.S. Congressman Bill Orton. She is a past president of the J. Reuben Clark Law School Alumni Board.

“Wendy is well qualified for the position, and I’m confident that she will do a wonderful job,” said Kevin J Worthen, former dean of the law school and the new Advancement Vice President at BYU. “She is student-oriented and has a good understanding of the law school’s mission.”

Archibald will begin working at the law school in August.
