James Franco Drops Out of NYU?
Fan girls beware, you’re about to shed a few tears. Looks like our favorite Spiderman hottie and James Dean look-alike, James Franco, is no longer taking classes at Tisch School of the Arts. The tip was passed along to me by an NYU faculty member, but has yet to be confirmed. In the meantime, I guess all the girls who stalk the Tisch building waiting for Franco to exit are going to have to find a new object of their affection. Haley Joel Osment, perhaps?

Creative Writing MFA is at Tisch .
Sad, sad way to start the week.
I think by Tisch, Cody meant Columbia.
And to this I only have one response:

James France is a first-year student in the graduate film program at Tisch. His photo on the wall labeled “first year” along with the other 30-40 some graduate film students in the Tisch building confirms this. As to his current enrollment, the claim that he has “dropped out” is grounded in relatively nothing. It needs to be verified; an “unconfirmed faculty member” is not sufficient.

I am a Tisch student and I used to see james twice a week at the begining of the fall semester and I stopped seing him when he started promoting Milk. I thought that he probably had some events to attend which prevented him from going to all his classes but it now seems like he’s indeed completely dropped out… ![]()

I spoke with him at the Tisch Milk screening. He’s not dropping out. We discussed his projects at the graduate level in comparison to mine at the undergrad level. He talked to me and a few of his classmates about several future projects he’s working on. Simple fluctuation in his schedule does not mandate his dropping out. I don’t eat lunch at Hayden anymore…but I’m not dropping out.



Wait a sec, I thought James was getting his MFA for creative writing - that’s not in Tisch, is it?
And Haley Joel is short, but adorable.
