What to choose? A recommendation from the dean or from a professor?

[Lost in Translation]

One of my professors at college, on whom I am counting for a brilliant recommendation, became the dean of the college this year. so, i am wondering what will be better: should I ask her to write me a letter of recommendation as a professor or should I ask her to give me recommendation in the dean's form? What do you think I should do?

I don't think it matters.  Some deans still choose to teach classes, at least at my school they did.  Despite what you ask her to do, she'd most likely prefer to refer to herself as the dean, since that is her current title.
