<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'></p> Center Andrew Bynum spent part of his summer in a college classroom, which made him like a lot of other 19-year-olds trying to get ahead in their coursework. Bynum said he received a B grade in a history class at Loyola Marymount.</p> "We did, like, 400 years in three weeks," he said. "The first day of class, they gave me two books to read and two papers to write."</p> Bynum said he also planned to take an online course during the season, and eventually wants to get a degree.</p> "I want to get a degree, but it's going to take, like, 12 years," he joked.</p> Bynum also participated in a gym class. The Lakers asked him to improve his strength, endurance and conditioning during the summer, so he hired a personal trainer during the offseason.</p> "Last year, we started out well and then it looked like we hit a wall," Bynum said. "I guess I did. So I was out there on that track. It's the only way to get it done."</div></p> Source: LA Daily News</p> Great to see Bynum continuing his education despite being a professional ball player. Nice to see some ambition from him this summer.</p>
Very smart choice, it shows maturity that he went back to college and dedication that he completed what the Lakers asked of him. However, I do belive, just like many others, that he should've just gone to college in the first place.</p>
Good choice by baby Bynum this shows that he is still has interest in his college degree and in school general.</p>
Great move by Bynum; shows maturity and signs of an intellect (not that they didn't exist before, but with some other players, you wonder...).</p>
