Steven Spielberg may be one of the most successful filmmakers in Hollywood history, but for the last three decades he has missed one thing-a college degree. That was realized in the end at the end of May, 2002.
The 55-year-old director of “E. T. the Extra-Terrestrial” and “Saving Private Ryan” was admitted at California State University, Long Beach, in 1965 but dropped out three years later to pursue his filmmaking career.
After admitted again nearly a year ago, he has caught up on his credits and attended commencement ceremony in cap and gown(毕业典礼). “Completing the requirements for my degree 33 years after finishing my principal education marks my longest past production schedule, ” (后期制作) Spielberg joked in a written statement.
Although he didn't attend general classes, the director wrote papers, worked on independent projects and consulted with professor to receive his bachelor's degree in film and electronic arts, according to his spokesman, Marvin Levy.
“I wanted to accomplish this for many years as a ‘thank you’ to my parents for giving me the opportunity for an education and a career, and as a personal note for my own family—and young people everywhere—about the importance of achieving their college education goals, ” Spielberg said. “But I hope they get there quicker than I did, ”he added.
After leaving school, Spielberg worked in television through the early 1970x. He made his film “The Sugarland Express” in 1974 and followed the next year with the great success “Jaws”.
He already has five honorary doctorates (荣誉博士)—the latest bestowed upon him by Yale University late of May, 2002—but what he really wanted was this humble bachelor's degree. Spielberg carried his scroll of honor as proudly as any of his graduate fellows. He posed for pictures with his fellow honorees on the campus lawn and smiled broadly as he was showered with confetti(彩色纸屑).
