My dream is to meet Robert Christgau at NYU....

**** James Franco.

I want to be able to walk into Starbucks in Greenwhich Village and spot Christgau with a laptop and a coffee writing his newest reviews (he's a music critic, by the way).

How would I go about spotting him around campus?

Also, he teaches the course artists and audiences. Would I be allowed to just sit in on his classes? I just want to listen; that's all.... Is it possible?

spaz, the class James Franco is teaching at NYU is very limited in enrollment (10-12 graduate students). I am sure they have to cap it even for majors. So the chance of you sitting in would be non-existent (IMO).

I guess if you are really a fan and want to time it so you can be near the classroom where he teaches when the class ends, you may get a chance to spot him. Though I am not sure if the school will tighten security for his classroom. (Just don't everyone get the same idea, otherwise it will be a nuisance for the poor man.)

Jumping on the bandwagon, how do I go about meeting Bo Burnham at NYU?

Bo Burnham I've only seen once and I almost didn't recognize him. James Franco, well, I lived in Goddard my first year and he was in the Starbucks below us every Monday night for 4-6 hours. I got his autograph one night after a bunch of people finally worked up the nerve to swarm him as he left, got one for a girl on my floor too.

He seemed incredibly tired, so weary. He was nice though, but if you ask me, he brought it on himself by going to the most popular, visible spot on campus to do work. He creeped on two freshmen in Tisch for drama once, it was hilarious how they drank his words up and you could see his mind turning.

I've also seen Carlkr, for those of you who know him on Youtube.
