Campus Overload - John Legend guest lectures at Howard: Amidst a discussion about school segregation in Howard University Professor Greg Carr's 'Education in Black America' course Thursday morning, there was a knock at the door -- and an announcement that there would be a chance in lecturer.'Surprise, surprise,' said singer John Legend, a six-time Grammy winner and philanthropist. Legend was in Washington to attend the premier of 'Waiting for Superman,' a documentary about education reform that features his music, and promote his new album with the Roots, 'Wake Up!'
The four dozen or so students in the class laughed and clapped, shouted out greetings and snapped photos with their cellphones, and then everything reverted back to a regular classroom -- well, other than the mtvU cameras and bright lights.
