… and two professional wrestlers - The Miz and Flyin’ Brian.

Looking at the university level educational experience of the Gilligan’s Island cast members, I’d say our title is pretty safe. I think Dawn Wells (aka Mary Ann) is the only potential contender.

Alan Hale, Jr. (Skipper Jonas Grumby) - no college
Bob Denver - (Gilligan) - Loyola University (Los Angeles)
Jim Backus - (Thurston Howell III) - no college

Tina Louise - (Ginger Grant) - Miami University
Russell Johnson - (Professor Roy Hinkley) - no college
Dawn Wells - (Mary Ann Summers) - University of Washington

Jim Backus played James Dean’s dad in Rebel Without A Cause and was Mr. Magoo. Now that’s some impressive range even sans a college degree.
