Oscar-winning actor Matthew McConaughey will join the University of Texas as a professor and will teach this fall in the university's Department of Radio-Television-Film.

McConaughey has been a visiting instructor at the flagship campus in Austin since 2015, and the university said in a statement Wednesday that the appointment recognizes his "outstanding work as a teacher and mentor."

He will continue teaching a Script to Screen film production class for which he developed the course curriculum.

The university says McConaughey is respected for his "willingness to work with students beyond the classroom."

I think it's badass that a bonafide star, that is still in the industry, is willing to teach a college class. Really cool of him. However, I imagine that 95% or more of the students are going to either be stargazers (dudes) or girls that just wanna try to frick him.

I know he is married, but the beaver buffet that will unfold before him will be the stuff of fantasy land.

Apparently James Franco taught a class at UCLA but put zero effort into it, and when a girl came to his office hours to ask him questions, he cried and asked her to leave

I think Franco is one of those rare geniuses who lives his entire life as one giant troll.

Kind of a funny headline but I would be surprised if anyone more qualified is teaching a college class like that in the world. Even though he seems like he would be a lazy stoner his work ethic is supposed to be pretty insane.

I wish this stereotype would go away. In my circle of friends, there are among us doctors, CFO's, lawyers, etc. who gladly partake in the herb.

It's a stereotype for idiots who smoke indca.

High creative energy Sativa strains are what you need.

Marijuana is as misunderstood as it is demonized.
