Channing Tatum was a recent guest speaker at Harvard Business School, three years after he took a four-day executive education course at the university.

The ā€œMagic Mikeā€ actor-producer joined actress Cody Horn and producer Reid Carolin to speak to HBS professor Anita Elberse’s students, Elberse said in an Instagram post last Wednesday. Elberse teaches a course called ā€œBusinesses of Entertainment, Media, and Sports,ā€ according to Harvard.

Tatum took Elberse’s course in 2016. The four-day-long course costs $10,000 and teaches ā€œnew approaches for driving revenue and success in today’s entertainment environment,ā€ according to Harvard.

Elberse posed for a photo with her arms around Tatum’s waist on the steps of Harvard’s Baker Library.

ā€œFor the record, it was @channingtatum’s idea to make this a prom picture. But that doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy it,ā€ Elberse wrote.

Tatum and Elberse joked about going to prom together.

ā€œAnita you would [have] been an epic prom date. If Harvard has a prom and your husband doesn’t want to go and co signs I’d be honored. Hahahaha we’ll break the dance floor,ā€ Tatum wrote in a comment on Elberse’s post.

Horn posted a similar photo with Tatum, Elberse, and Carolin outside the library. Singer Jessie J, Tatum’s girlfriend, commented with a heart emoji on the post.
