Yale University is a private Ivy League research university in New Haven, Connecticut. Founded in 1701, Yale is the third-oldest institution of higher education in the United States.
On April 26, 2011, American rapper Lupe Fiasco headlined the Yale Spring Fling. On May 12, 2016, he mentioned on Twitter of taking the online open course "Atmosphere, Ocean & Environmental Change".[1]
During his inaugural year as a lecturer on Rap Theory & Practice at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, he announced on March 30, 2023, that he was a Saybrook Associate Fellow for the fall of 2023. He continued, "Shout to Tom Near for nominating me to a place where against all odds two Chicagoans found a home in the Ivy League."[2] The Yale blog website explained, "The program allows Fellows and Associate Fellows—who can be faculty, staff and other Yale affiliates—to form connections with each other and with students over a four-year renewable timespan. [...] Though Fellows are often associated with the University, colleges can nominate and appoint non-Yale employees per year as Associate Fellows. This year, Head Near nominated Fiasco, and Fiasco accepted." Near added in a statement that Fiasco participated in almost every open online Yale course provided by YouTube.[3]
