<p>Former <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/chicago" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chicago</a> Mayor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/lori-lightfoot" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lori Lightfoot</a> is headed to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/harvard" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard</a> University to teach about health policy and leadership.</p>
<p>The Ivy League university <a href="https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/newsplus/lori-lightfoot-appointed-menschel-fellow-at-harvard-chan-school/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">confirmed</a> on Thursday that Lightfoot, who lost her bid for a second term as mayor this year, will serve as a senior leadership fellow this fall at the T.H. Chan School of Public Health in Boston.</p>
<p>“We believe our students will benefit from her experiences, insights and knowledge of leadership decision-making,&#8221; Eric Andersen, director of Senior Leadership Fellows Program at the school, <a href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/2023/6/1/23744640/former-chicago-mayor-lori-lightfoot-to-teach-at-harvard-t-h-chan-school-of-public-health" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told the Chicago Sun-Times</a>.</p>
<p>In a statement, Lightfoot said she looks forward to teaching about her experience leading the nation&#8217;s third-largest city during the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ll share specifics about the way we managed the COVID-19 public health crisis, and we&#8217;ll delve into how we approached the crisis as an avenue to address long standing public health equity challenges using data and science,&#8221; Lightfoot said. &#8220;I also look forward to being part of the community of scholars, intellectuals and students at such a world class institution.&#8221;</p>
<p>During her single four-year term as mayor, which ended last month when <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/chicago-welcomes-new-leftist-mayor-with-vision-of-a-safer-and-more-equitable-city" target="_blank" rel="noopener">leftist Brandon Johnson</a> took over the role, Lightfoot made headlines for implementing <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/chicago-mayor-lori-lightfoot-issues-another-lockdown-advisory-demands-thanksgiving-plans-be-canceled" target="_blank" rel="noopener">strict lockdown</a> <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/lori-lightfoot-claims-covid-regulations-prevented-tribute-for-fallen-chicago-cop-thats-not-true-medical-examiner-says" target="_blank" rel="noopener">measures</a> and her inability to put a stop to <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2023/03/01/politics/lori-lightfoot-chicago-mayor-race-crime/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">rampant crime in the Windy City</a>. <a href="https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/newsplus/lori-lightfoot-appointed-menschel-fellow-at-harvard-chan-school/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Harvard Gazette</a> said her &#8220;accomplishments&#8221; includes &#8220;landmark ethics and good governance reforms, worker protection legislation, and key investments in education, public safety, and financial stability.&#8221;</p>

<p>After Lightfoot failed to secure a spot in the run-off contest in the mayoral election in late February, <a href="https://abc7chicago.com/lori-lightfoot-chicago-mayor-news-brandon-johnson/13196138/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ABC7 Chicago reported</a> that in an interview she pointed to the pandemic as well as <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/derek-chauvin-ex-minneapolis-cop-convicted-of-murdering-george-floyd-files-appeal" target="_blank" rel="noopener">George Floyd&#8217;s death</a> and violence that ensued as factors in her defeat.</p>
<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s a lot of anger, frustration and fear that is present, not only in Chicago, but across our country. And, the winds of dissension continue to blow at a furious pace,&#8221; Lightfoot said. &#8220;So, for me, the biggest challenge wasn&#8217;t some particular person&#8217;s name on the ballot. The biggest challenge was breaking through what I call that &#8216;anger bubble.'&#8221;</p>
<p>Appointed a Richard L. and Ronay A. Menschel Senior Leadership Fellow, Lightfoot is expected to start teaching a course tentatively titled “Health Policy and Leadership&#8221; in late August. <a href="https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/policy-translation-leadership-development/recent-menschel-fellows/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Others who have</a> become Menschel fellows include former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and former Boston Mayor Kim Janey.</p>
