Ousted General To Teach At Yale

General Stanley McChrystal will soon make the move from the military to academia. Yale University announced Monday that the recently ousted Afghan commander will begin teaching a graduate level seminar on international relations at the Ivy League school.

“I am extremely excited to be teaching at Yale,” McChrystal said in a statement released by the University. “I look forward to sharing my experiences and insights as a career military officer.”

The four-star General will join the faculty as a Senior Fellow in the school’s Jackson Institute for Global Affairs. His seminar will focus on  the effect globalization has taken on modern leadership.

McChrystal was recently replaced as Afghan Commander by General David Petraeus after disparaging remarks aimed at administration officials from both McChrystal and his staff were included in the June issue of Rolling Stone magazine.  McChrystal was relieved of duty amid the ensuing controversy and retired from the Army soon after.
