<p>Silly topic as an antidote to all the admissions tension.</p>

<p>So do any of you Yale students know whether dishy actor James Franco, whose celebrity seems to be growing by the day, is still holed up as a first-semester English PhD candidate at Yale?</p>

<p>I mean, he seems to be everywhere: events in NYC all the time, own art/video exhibit in NYC, movies being released one after another, and now, it was announced he is returning to the soap opera Port Charles ....</p>

<p>Can he really balance all this plus the rather considerable demands of being a first year doctoral student? He is human, after all, just a very good looking human.</p>

<p>My D1 saw him this semester. And I saw him on a late night TV show and he talked about having to fly back immediately to got to class at Y. His book just came out recently, I’m afraid it didn’t get a very good review from our local paper.</p>

<p>He actually did a brief scene in the YSO Halloween show video (a Yale tradition). I think one can still purchase a copy of the DVD–check the YSO website.</p>
