New dad JERRY O'CONNELL is headed back to school - to study law.
The Stand By Me star welcomed twin daughters with his actress wife Rebecca Romijn in December (08) - and now he's taking on a new challenge, enrolling in courses at Southwestern Law School in Los Angeles.
Leslie Steinberg, the school's Assistant Dean of Public Affairs, says, "He is very excited to be starting his law school education here at Southwestern. He just had orientation last week, and he started classes this week. (He was) very impressed with the faculty and the vibe here. This is brand new to him as well. He's very much looking forward to his education."
The 35 year old studied film at New York University in the 1990s but left before graduating to focus on his Hollywood career.
