Shah Rukh Khan to speak at Yale as Chubb Fellow

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan would deliver a lecture at the prestigious Yale University on 12th April as it's Chubb Fellow, an honour which in the past has been bestowed on heads of states and Noble prize winners. 
 

As part of the prestigious fellowship, Shah Rukh, 46, would deliver a lecture at Yale University. The Chubb Fellowship is among Yale's highest honors and Khan would join a roster of fellows dating back to 1949 who have included heads of states, Nobel Prize winners, and leaders from every area of human endeavor who have inspired Yale students.

 "Through his films and his philanthropy, the Chubb Fellowship noted that Khan has been among his generation's most important examples of the power of art to promote higher human ideals and aspirations," the University said.

Established in 1936, through the generosity of Hendon Chubb (Yale College Class of 1895), the program is based in Timothy Dwight College, one of Yale's residential colleges.

Former Chubb Fellows include Presidents George W Bush, Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter including many more.

  1. Nice post. Parents are parents, not Gods. Of course they cannot have all the answers. The way you explain things to your kids should do all the work…it all comes under parenthood and your people skills.
