Lightfoot to teach health policy and leadership course at Harvard

Former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot has been named a Richard L. and Ronay A. Menschel Senior Leadership Fellow, receiving a once-in-a-lifetime chance to mentor Harvard University students.

Lori Lightfoot is bringing her skills and knowledge to Harvard University to teach a health policy and leadership course.

According to The Harvard Gazette, the former mayor of Chicago has been named a Richard L. and Ronay A. Menschel Senior Leadership Fellow for the fall semester at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.

The fellowship program provides a once-in-a-lifetime chance for people who recently held prominent positions in journalism, nonprofit organizations, multilateral institutions, government and other fields to spend time mentoring and instructing students who want to fill those positions.

Lightfoot, who served as the first openly gay and Black woman mayor of Chicago, oversaw a coordinated, citywide response to protect public health and lessen the COVID-19 pandemic’s economic impact during her term as mayor, which ended on May 15.

She established the city’s COVID-19 Recovery Task Force and the Racial Equity Rapid Response Team.

The former mayor emphasized fostering inclusive economic growth throughout Chicago’s neighborhoods, The Gazette noted, passing crucial laws on worker protection, ethical reform, good governance and significant investments in public safety, financial stability and education.

Harvard: We still have too much credibility. How can we lose some of it?

Lori Lightfoot: Can I speak to you about an idea I have?

So, she’s going to teach students on how to further ruin a city? Outstanding!

No wonder the Ivy League colleges have been turning out libtard idiots—look who they choose to instruct their students. Lightfoot is a pathetic, incompetent loser. She doesn’t have the qualities to inspire greatness in anyone. She is a whining puke who fouls up one thing after another and was finally booted out of office.

TRANSLATION: "I am Lori Lightfoot. I am teaching the course this semester on Health Policy and Leadership. Open your textbooks to page 23."

She is following in Billy Bog’s footsteps. She should probably wear boots.

Oh, great. I guess Louis Farrakhan was not available.

On second thought, I’m probably not being fair by comparing Farrakhan to Lightfoot. Both people are stone cold racists. But Farrakhan is at least somewhat competent.

With her appointment Lori Lightfoot will become the Irma Grese Health Policy Professor at Harvard.

I have to admit, I laughed when I read your post...but oddly, has a kernel of truth. If those two were my only choices to build a walking bridge over a creek, I would choose Farrakhan, but he would probably insist I dig the holes and haul the rocks!

Lightfoot would be useful only as foundational material between the rocks, or to scare any wandering wildlife or people away.

..receiving a once-in-a-lifetime chance to mentor Harvard University students.

Of all the 'once in a lifetime' chances to care about, mentoring Harvard students is not much of an opportunity.

The quality of education had severely declined at all levels.

Why even if I had the money, I would never send my children/grandchildren there

Proving once again that college is an utter scam, a sofisticated liberal money laundering operation, nothing more.
