Noticed Blythe Danner will get an honorary degree - nice. Funny they don't mentioned that her husband was a Tulane Grad.

From the Advocate --
Danner made her Broadway debut in "Cyrano de Bergerac" in 1968 and won a Theatre World Award for her performance in the 1969 production of "The Miser." She won a Tony for Best Featured Actress in "Butterflies Are Free" and garnered Emmy Awards for her performances on “Huff” and “Will & Grace.”
Danner is on the boards of Environmental Advocates of New York and the Environmental Media Association. After the death of her husband, producer Bruce Paltrow, Danner founded the Bruce Paltrow Oral Cancer Fund. She and Bruce Paltrow were the parents of actress Gwyneth Paltrow and director Jake Paltrow.

Dripping Springs is Metro Austin. When you go to the original Salt Lick Open Pit BBQ joint you're in Driftwood/DSprings.
