Tom Hanks is once again leading by example during the coronavirus pandemic. After the Academy Award-winning actor delivered a virtual commencement speech for Ohio college seniors, he went a step further by designing and signing (along with Albert Einstein) a special pandemic-themed diploma. "To all the Grads of 2020, you Chosen Ones!

Print this up on a sheepskin! Hanx," he wrote on Twitter alongside a photo of the diploma. The special document reads: "Distinct labors in the face of the Great Pandemic.

Successful completion of your education despite the hardships imposed by the COVID-19 crisis. You have displayed honor, dedication, wherewithal and good citizenship." To lighten up the moment, Hanks also posted a photo of his 1974 senior year.
