Emma Watson to graduate from Brown University

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — It’s graduation day for movie star Emma Watson.

The British actress best known as Hermione Granger in the “Harry Potter” movies is set to be among the 2,000 graduates receiving degrees Sunday from Brown University.

Watson will be graduating with a bachelor’s degree in English literature from the Ivy League university in Rhode Island.

The 24-year-old started at Brown in 2009, the same year she was named the highest-grossing actress of the decade by the Guinness Book of World Records.

Watson had a busy film career during her time as a student, releasing both parts of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” ”The Perks of Being a Wallflower,” ”This is the End,” and the recent Biblical epic “Noah.”
