There are plenty of huge box-office draws (Will Smith, Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, Ben Stiller, Adam Sandler, Johnny Depp) and even more famous celebrities (Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Lopez, Lindsay Lohan), but no one besides Clooney is so gracefully both.

...conjunction with both the Athletic Department and the Women’s Center to coordinate the effort for this policy. While no women seem to be complaining about the change, some students in possession of a Y chromosome are less than thrilled. One bro looking to buff up, D. Adam J. Moss ‘10, was turned away from the gym, much to his chagrin. “I wasn’t given a reason why, so I felt like I was being unnecessarily excluded.
