Larry Summers Finds Popularity in the Classroom

Lawrence Summers may have had a controversial run as Harvard University's president, but now that he's back from service in the Obama administration, his lectures on campus are wildly popular with students, who come early to get a seat and stay late to ask questions, The Boston Globe reported. "I got a lot of satisfaction from being president but now I can focus on students in the way I wasn’t able to as president," he told the Globe. "I don’t think I’d enjoy being engaged in who was going to be hired and how the curriculum’s going to be reformed and the like at this stage. My life is much freer now."
