Sources tell NY1 that former New School President Bob Kerrey will decide in the next week whether to run for his old U.S. Senate seat in Nebraska.
The Democrat said he is seriously considering running for the Nebraska office he left in 2001 after two terms.
The seat is expected to be key in the Democratic fight to hold on to control of the Senate.
Following his time in Washington, Kerrey served for ten years as president of The New School.
Credited with expanding the university's profile and raising money, Kerrey was criticized by some students and staff members who felt he led the school away from its progressive roots.
Kerrey left the New School in 2010.
