October 2026 several of us are going to take on the 30-Day Celebrity Alma Mater Coach4aday Challenge. Each day we will identify a celebrity and share where they attended college. For Day 13 it is on an actor named STEVE CARELL.

When you hear the name Steve Carell, what comes to mind? Maybe Michael Scott from The Office, the movie The 40-Year-Old Virgin, or one of the many characters he has brought to life on the big screen. He is a big-time actor that actually attended a small college.
If you knew he was a student at Denison in Ohio mark me down as impressed.
