While his wife, Kamala Harris, serves as vice president, the nation’s incoming second gentleman, Doug Emhoff, will be teaching courses in entertainment law at Georgetown University.
Emhoff, a longtime entertainment lawyer, will serve as a Distinguished Visitor From Practice, teaching a course in entertainment law disputes in the spring semester, the university announced. Emhoff will also serve as a distinguished fellow at the university’s Institute for Technology Law and Policy.
“Doug is one of the nation’s leading intellectual property and business litigators, and he has a strong commitment to social justice,” Georgetown Law dean William M. Treanor said in a statement.
“I’ve long wanted to teach and serve the next generation of young lawyers,” Emhoff said in a statement. “I couldn’t be more excited to join the Georgetown community.”
