She will also work with CWP leadership “to support programming related to renewing democracy and advancing efforts for effective engagement of women and youth in this country and around the world.”

“I have had the great pleasure of knowing Hillary personally for three decades, since her early days as First Lady of the United States. Her public service has expanded since then, most notably in her remarkably successful tenure as United States Senator for the State of New York, in her impressive role as Secretary of State, and in her two historic and record-breaking presidential campaigns,” Bollinger wrote. “Given her extraordinary talents and capacities together with her singular life experiences, Hillary Clinton is unique, and, most importantly, exceptional in what she can bring to the University’s missions of research and teaching, along with public service and engagement for the public good.”
He also wrote that Clinton will “be bringing her capacities, experience, and wisdom to [the] institution” and that the campus will “benefit immeasurably from working with her in the months and years ahead.”
Clinton served as Secretary of State under former President Barack Obama from 2009 to 2013 and ran for President in two failed campaign in 2008 and 2016, notably losing to President Donald Trump. She received an honorary degree from Columbia University and spoke at the university’s 2022 commencement.
