SEATTLE (AP) — Former Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels will be at Harvard this spring, leading eight study sessions about politics and public service. Nickels will be a resident fellow at Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government in the Institute of Politics.
Two of the study sessions will be about Nickels’ work on climate change in Seattle and nationally as leader of the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement. He’ll also talk about his work in Seattle neighborhoods.
The former mayor dropped out of the University of Washington as a junior to enter politics.
He lost his bid for a third term in the August primary.
Nickels will head to Boston on Jan. 23 to begin his fellowship. He tells The Seattle Times he has some idea of what he’ll be doing after that but won’t say yet.
