Here's a small glimpse of the interview:
BUSINESS INSIDER: While Emma Watson attended Brown, rumors spread that students would pipe up in class and say, "10 points for Gryffindor" when she answered a question correctly. Did you ever encounter teasing like that?
SKANDAR: Every so often a lecturer might pluck up the courage to make a little
sheepish reference, but either they don't care or they are too
embarrassed to mention it.
Cambridge has been a great environment to meet some really interesting people and freely discuss all sorts of ideas. Bouncing ideas around with top academics in the classroom or with fellow students in the pub has been incredibly fulfilling
