Ban Ki-moon to Leave Job at Harvard to Take Position at Yonsei University
|For UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon is returning soon to South Korea. It will be interesting to see if in five years he will attempt to run for President again:
Former UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon will begin his tenure as distinguished professor and emeritus director of the Institute for Global Engagement at Yonsei University from July.
“The Institute for Global Engagement was established in April at the university to coordinate among students and professors activities including global and domestic missions and volunteer programs,” said Nam So-hyeon, a PR official at Yonsei University in western Seoul.
“It’s not yet decided what Ban will be teaching at the university.”
The university is also planning to open a sustainable growth center once Ban begins his tenure.
“Ban is known for his initiatives and engagement to combat climate change,” said Yonsei University President Kim Yong-hak.
“His participation at the center will bring about advances in its climate change research.”

And that is all that needs to be said about that.
Ahhhh. So he is going to be travelling the Al Gore gospel circuit? Nice way to fill the University’s coffers.
Ban Ki-moon must have a great deal of political skills and experience he can pass on to Korean students for the betterment of Korea on the international stage.
But if Yonsei chooses to tout some kind of wisdom about global warming and make that his focus, they dishonor him and make a joke of their university.
If he allows it, he shames himself.
Of course he is a globalist… a very dangerous thing for a country with no resources other than nationalistic people…
…and global warming is currently the best tool of the globalists.
Korea had better be careful about these matters… or they will find themselves in decline and forced to be China’s biiiitch.
