Morning Round-Up: James Franco goes Ivy League edition

It seems like James Franco may just not be ready to give up university life as the Spiderman stud seeks a master’s degree at none other than, yes, Yale.

Though these days you can see him acting on ABC’s soap opera, General Hospital, his head is not as hollow as you would think (I mean, c’mon, a soap opera?). Franco could be one of the most educated actors in Hollywood. He has an undergraduate degree from UCLA, an MFA from Colombia and studied film at NYU.
Though, he has been accepted to Yale, Franco has not officially accepted, the Yale Daily News reports.
“He loves Yale and it is more than likely his first choice,” manager Miles Levy told the Daily News.
His manager also told the Daily News that Franco would be attending more than one university. But, our advice, Franco, is not to overschedule. Us college students would know, otherwise you end up like this:

Quick Hits:
>> McDonald’s opened Hamburger University in Shanghai. The classes won’t be Flipping Burgers101 or French Frying203, but will train students in general manager skills.

>> Maryland lost 14,000 jobs last month, its biggest loss in 14 years.

>>Controversy continues over how much Sarah Palin will be paid to speak at a black tie event at Cal State Stanislaus.
