" Public intellectual and philosopher Matthew McConaughey will teach a class at the University of Texas Austin, imparting his timeless wisdom upon our nation&amp;#039;s youth. McConaughey will team up with director Gary Ross to teach a class on film at McConaughey&amp;#039;s alma mater, UT Austin announced on its Facebook page. The class is called &amp;quot;Advanced Producing: Script to Screen.&amp;quot; According to the school, students will be able to go &amp;quot;behind the scenes&amp;quot; of McConaughey and Ross&amp;#039;s new film, Free State of Jones, a Civil War drama. &amp;quot;By studying the movie&amp;#039;s source material, script, shot lists, storyboards, shooting schedule, VFX, final cut and even exclusive behind-the-scenes footage, students will garner insight into the production of a major Hollywood feature,&amp;quot; the course description reads. The downside: most of the &amp;quot;teaching&amp;quot; by McConaughey will be done via video, though he is slated to appear in person at least once during the semester.  McConaughey graduated from UT Austin in 1993 with a Bachelor&amp;#039;s in radio-television-film.      [H/T Vulture] "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
