Hey, they were stupid enough to pay. That school is dysfunctional.
@ET:  Agreed. UH wants so bad to be considered a top-tier university, they'll do stupid things to try to get a little attention. If they really wanted to look good to the public, why not pay somebody that has actually done SOMETHING during their life and can talk about their work and achievements. An author, a successful business-person, etc. instead of a **** ACTOR that reads lines and plays roles for the camera?!?! (Of course, that description also includes every politician!).  No, they've opted for someone that will draw some media attention so they can act like they are big stuff. Strictly a second-class move by a second-class school (and I LIKE UH).Obviously, I don't understand why ACTORS are even considered celebrities, and they sure as hell aren't HEROES just because of their acting talent. The same for talented ATHLETES and MUSICIANS. I may admire them for their talents, but their character is usually lacking.
