It’s nice to see when people try to better themselves, such as actor James Franco.

The Spiderman star, at age 30, just graduated from UCLA last month.

Franco had been taking English literature courses for years.

But, the overachieving actors isn’t going to stop there.

Franco is moving to New York this September to attend graduate school at NYU!

It turns out that Franco loves to write.

He’s co-written and directed films Fool’s Gold, The Ape, and Good Time Max.

Of his quest for more education, despite already being very successful, Franco says, “I am going back to school because I love being around people who are interested in what I’m interested in. That is the best way to learn.”

Adds James, “For me, being able to act in movies is not having it all. I am interested in other things, and I take my interests seriously. Thus, I’m back in school.”

Kudos to him.

Education is very important.

And the brain is a muscle – it needs exercise!

People should be following James Franco’s example, especially those celebutards that probably never finished high school or attempted to start college.
