Virginia Attorney General Bob McDonnell appointed Steven Rosenberg, attorney for Augusta County, to the position of associate university counsel and special counsel to the University.
According to David Johnson, Virginia's deputy attorney general for health, education and social services, McDonnell is the official attorney for all Virginia colleges and universities. For each college and university, he also has assistant attorneys general "who do the day to day work with him," Johnson said.
Rosenberg was one of 20 attorneys interviewed for the job and will now be one of six associates under University General Counsel Paul Forch, Johnson said, noting that "his background brought a unique set of experiences to the job."
