Emma Watson Is Hitting the Books

The 19-year-old star has been getting settled at Brown University, founded in 1764 in Providence, Rhode Island.

The actress who has played Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter film franchise, is now a student in real life.  Watson wrote about her new endeavour on her Web site. "I’ve finally arrived at Brown University and I’m having the most amazing time," she says. "I’m still so excited to be here; I’ve already met so many incredible people."

The young star will be concentrating on her studies for the next several months.  The next film of the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I, will be released in November 2010.
