Greg Graffin, frontman for punk rock stalwarts Bad Religion who?obtained a PhD in zoology from Cornell University and recently published the science memoir Anarchy Evolution: Faith, Science and Bad Religion in a World Without God, will?teach Evolution at the ivy league university this fall.

The semester runs from August 24 to December 11, leaving "plenty of time to head overseas on the weekends!," Graffin jokes in a statement released Wednesday.?

Dr. Jingmai O?Connor?explains in this month's Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society in London: ?The species name is in honor of Dr. Gregory Graffin, PhD: paleontologist, evolutionary biologist, professor, rock star, and inspiration to numerous budding and established scientists around the world.?

Bad Religion tours Europe this summer. The band plays Denmark's Roskilde Festival on July 3. See additional dates on the Epitaph Records site.?
