Former labor secretary to join Brandeis – Robert B. Reich for post of professor at Brandeis University

WALTHAM, Mass. — Outgoing Labor Secretary Robert B. Reich Brandeis University.

Reich will join the faculty at The Heller Graduate School for Advanced Studies in Social Welfare as a fully tenured professor. The school offers courses covering a variety of policy areas, including health, families and labor.

“It’s really a match made in heaven as far as Brandeis is concerned,” Brandeis spokesman Dennis Nealon said.

Reich, who served as labor secretary for four years announced his resignation from that post in November. Alexis Herman has been named to take the post, but she has not yet been confirmed by the Senate.
