Unlike Old School, Ferrell wasn't at USC trying to recapture former glory but his eldest child Magnus is a sophomore there. Ferrell himself graduated from USC in 1990 with a bachelor's degree in sports information. He returned to his alma mater in 2017 to deliver the commencement speech. The following year he contributed to funding the first-ever full scholarship for the women's soccer team with wife Viveca Paulin. Want more movie news?
