Does anyone know of any famous or otherwise extra-remarkable (though of course we all are) students in Brown's class of '08? You know, people I can brag to my friends about. What about any other famous current brown students?

Doesn't a Kennedy go to Brown? One was arrested for urinating in public, but I'm not sure if he graduated or not.

Leelee Sobieski. aside from her, i can only think of famous people's kids. there's susan sarandon's daughter (2007) and peter boyle's two daughters.
jfk jr. went there... do you mean another kennedy?

susan sarandon's daughter is a semi famous actress in her own right, she was the jewish girl in "Saved!"

I'm pretty sure this was recently, like a few years ago tops, so must be another kennedy.

a lot of students here have famous parents...dustin hoffman, danny devito, kevin costner, alan lightman, christopher reeve, steven spielberg, chris mathews, gary trudeau, i don't know...lots


famous brown parents are cool because they often get involved in the brown community, coming to campus to give talks and lectures and promoting the school in other spheres of their life...it also makes for an interesting parents' weekend =)

I just learned that Keyes' daughter is actually deferring a year to work on her father's campaign. But she expects to be there in the class of '09.
