It is a GOOD week to be legally star struck, after Columbia Law School announced that Amal Clooney, née Alamuddin, is its newest Human Rights Institute lecturer and senior fellow.
“It is an honor to be invited as visiting professor at Columbia Law School alongside such a distinguished faculty and talented student pool,” Clooney said in a news release. “I look forward to getting to know the next generation of human rights activists studying here.”
Clooney, who represented WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and was senior adviser to Ghanaian diplomat Kofi Annan, is more than qualified. The London-based barrister will teach courses in human rights, as well as working with students at the university’s human rights clinic.
Oh, and she is also married to some guy named George.
