Amisha Patel To Teach As A Professor At Tufts University, Boston
Amisha Patel doesen’t needs to worry if her bollywood graph falls downwards. Amisha says, “I have been offered the post of a part-time professor at Tufts. I would be required to teach drama and take classes talking about my experiences as an actress. I can take up the post at any time in my life. It can be a six-week summer semester, for three months or an entire year. It’s an extremely prestigious post and being an advocate of education, it’s something I would love to do it at some point though not right now as it will be difficult for me to take off for a year. Musician Tracy Chapman is one of the Tufts graduates who has also been offered this post.”
Being a gold medallist in economics, Amisha is also a Gold Key member at the varsity. She says, “The Gold Key membership is awarded to any student who tops his/her course and has an outstanding academic record. If you are a Gold Key member you can get invited and accepted to any university to study further. Tufts had asked me to extend my education and get a Masters degree but I came back to India and joined films. Source
