Angelina Jolie to teach at Georgetown University

It was previously announced that the actor and human rights campaigner has joined the London School of Economics as a visiting professor and now it is reported that she “will do the same guest spot at LSE’s sister school, Georgetown”.

No details about her position at the US institution have been revealed but Georgetown Institute for Women, Peace and Security Ambassador Melanne Verveer held talks with the 41-year-old actor in May. “I was pleased to meet with Angelina Jolie during my recent trip to London on ways we at Georgetown University can continue the collaboration between our sister programmes on both sides of the Atlantic,” Verveer said in a statement. We look forward to welcoming Angelina and former foreign secretary Hague to Georgetown in the future.” 

At LSE, Jolie will give a series of lectures to students of the new one-year MSc course on women, peace and security, which will run from the beginning of the 2017 academic year.
