In a non-binding poll, 14 of the 26 law professors at Florida International University in Miami deemed U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta “not acceptable” to be their new dean, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reported. The Bush-appointed Acosta, 40, is one of 10 finalists for the job. The story didn’t provide any answers as to what exactly the law faculty objected; the Sun-Sentinel is owned by bankrupt Tribune Co., and likely doesn’t have enough money to pay for more reporting.
