Celebrity grad school fever!

Humphrey catches up on his reading with a little help. Books can be funny.

Humphrey has been astounded about the talk of celebrities attending grad school. Not that this is news - Bill Cosby has been flaunting his academic credentials for some time. But, most surprising to him was that former NBA star Shaquille O'Neal is working on his PhD in educational leadership! Does this mean that his guardian will be competing with that guy for jobs henceforth? As well, Oscar-nominated actor and jack-of-all-trades James Franco is working on at least one PhD. Eva Longoria and Ashley Judd recently completed their masters degrees (Ms. Judd impressively got her MPA from Harvard) and both are talking doctoral work. And Dr. Mayim Bialik (TV's Blossom) holds a PhD in neuroscience (as does her current character on Big Bang Theory).

Humphrey is inspired to keep up with his studies with the help of his own personal tutor, just to make sure he doesn't fall behind and find himself less informed than people featured on TMZ.

Sometimes, you just have to let humans read by themselves, though.
