It's confirmed: Emma Watson will go to Brown

Emma Watson has confirmed, FINALLY, that yes, she will be going to Brown University. Here’s what she had to say:

Paste: You are off to University in the autumn.

Watson: I am—to Brown, which is an Ivy League establishment in the U.S.A. I’ve got a place there to read literature.

Paste: Was that a deliberate career choice?

Watson: Oh yes, very definitely. I hope to do quite well with my A Levels [she’s being modest—she achieved straight A’s in her chosen subjects, English literature, geography and art, as well as seven A’s and three A* at GCSE level] and they’ve provisionally accepted me, so I’m off to study.

I’m not real familiar with British syntax; when she says she’s going to “read literature”, she means study it, right? Not just read it?
