2. 传奇吉他手、天体物理博士布莱恩・梅(Brian May)
生于1947年的布莱恩・梅是英国著名摇滚乐队皇后乐队的主音吉他手。
The legendary guitarist and founding member of Queen just didn’t find being a rock star was enough for him. So he instead got a doctorate in astrophysics at Imperial College. He was actually going for his degree before going into music, but stopped once the band gained so much success.
成为一名摇滚明星对这位传奇吉他手和皇后乐队的创始成员来说还远远不够。于是他去英国帝国理工学院拿了个天体物理学博士学位。其实在进入音乐圈之前,他就在攻读学位,但没想到乐队能取得这么大的成功,学业就暂时搁置了。

Years later he went back and finished in two years in 2007. It took 37 years for his thesis on zodiacal dust to be approved, according to Imperial College.
若干年后他又重返校园,并用两年的时间,在2007年完成了学业。根据帝国理工学院的信息显示,他那篇关于黄道尘埃云的论文花了37年才过审。
在拿到天体物理学博士学位后,布莱恩又被选为利物浦约翰摩尔斯大学的名誉校长。当选理由是:在这个浮躁的年代里,没有哪个人能像他这样,如此的声名远扬,如此的家财万贯,如此的受万人追捧,却又如此的保持着自己求知的可贵本性。
