Several news outlets, including CBS Chicago, Evanston Now and Crain’s Chicago Business, reported today that former Illinois state treasurer and Senate candidate Alexi Giannoulias will become a part-time instructor at Northwestern beginning in the fall.

He will reportedly teach a political science class called “Campaigning vs. Leading,” which will focus on his campaign against senator Mark Kirk.

University spokesman Al Cubbage declined to comment, saying he did not have details on this announcement.
