There are so many things in life that college won't help at all, IMO, or anyway, not much. Acting, writing, fine art, these are best learned from practicing professionals, not academics, unless that academic also happens to be a practicing professional. And then you also must learn by doing.

Has Ammo ever considered law? It's a great profession for people who don't know what they want to be when they grow up. You'd be surprised how many people drift into law because they didn't know what else to do. With a talent for acting, he may want to consider trial law. The very best trial lawyers I have ever seen are right-brained lateral thinkers who slouch, keep their shoes by the door, have a hard time following rules, but are able to pull it all together miraculously when it's show-time. It helps to have a love of justice and an ability to sit on your duff for hours at a time reading.
