Hillary Clinton in talks to teach at Columbia University: Report

Hillary Clinton is in talks to take on a broad-ranging teaching position with Columbia University, an Ivy League school in Manhattan, according to a report Friday.

Clinton has not taught in more than four decades since she administered criminal law classes at the School of Law at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville.

Sources told the New York Daily News that the former first lady, secretary of state, and presidential nominee could be making a return to academia once her book tour concludes later this year.

The potential job as a “University Professor” at Columbia would give Clinton the opportunity to lecture at the university’s various schools and departments. It could also include an agreement to house her archives.

“It’s all fluid. It could be a number of things. No decisions have been made, but there are talks,” one source said. “She’s trying to figure out what she wants to do. It could end up with the papers at one place, and she has some sort of faculty role at another. She hasn’t quite come to a decision.”

Clinton launched her national book tour for her third memoir, “What Happened,” in the late summer.
