Consumer advocate and Harvard Law Professor Elizabeth Warren has made a last-minute adjustment to her fall schedule, dropping a class she was set to teach just days before the semester began and fueling speculation that she may soon be nominated for the head of the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, according to The Washington Post.
"Professor Warren regrets that she will not be able to teach you this fall and we regret the last minute change,” law school dean Martha Minow wrote to students, according to an e-mail obtained by WaPo.
Warren, chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel that oversees TARP funds, is perhaps the most high-profile candidate for the position, with prominent members of Congress, Representative Barney Frank and Senator John Kerry among them, voicing their support for her nomination throughout the summer.
Public groundswell is just as strong. A widely-circulated Youtube rap video dedicated to “Sherriff Warren” speaks to her burgeoning status as folk hero: “Elizabeth Warren, we got your back. Wall Street, you better watch out.”
Harvard Law School did not immediately return requests for comment.
