Jeb Bush is going back to school, as a guest lecturer at Harvard University.
Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government announced Tuesday the former Florida governor and unsuccessful Republican presidential candidate will be a visiting fellow and guest lecturer at the public policy school this fall.
On Thursday, Bush will give a lecture in the Edwin L. Godkin annual series that will focus on the lack of economic and social mobility in the U.S. and how the country should address those issues.
Bush will be a guest lecturer for a course in the school’s Program on Education Policy and Governance called “The Political Economy of the School.” Although the course information has not been released to the public, Bush’s record of advocating for charter schools, voucher programs and the Common Core education standards likely will be mentioned in the course.
“Bush will also participate in the PEPG fall colloquia series on education policy and research, and in student study groups led by faculty members from HKS and elsewhere at Harvard University, sharing with them his experiences as both a two-term governor of Florida and as the head of a foundation dedicated to K-12 education reform,” the press release states.
Bush dropped out of the presidential race in February and has remained quiet since then, refusing to endorse Republican nominee Donald Trump. He took over as chairman of the Foundation for Excellence in Education in the spring and made a cameo appearance in the Emmy’s award ceremony in September.
