(antiMusic) Method Man has agreed to go back to high school as part of a plea agreement for his drug bust last May. He pleaded down two charges and as a result will give anti-drug talks to students. The Wu-Tang Clan member, real name is Clifford Smith, has agreed to lecture students at New York City high schools about the evils of drug use. He pleaded down charges of criminal possession of marijuana and operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of drugs to a charge of disorderly conduct as part of the agreement. Smith's attorney told reports on Friday that his client is "thrilled" to talk with students and added that "He's never been in trouble before. He's not a stereotypical rapper." Smith was arrested on May 17th after a tollbooth operator smelled marijuana coming from his Lincoln Navigator and called the cops. He was pulled over near the Battery Tunnel and when he rolled down his window the officer was reportedly treated to a strong dose of marijuana smoke. The police officer reportedly looked in the vehicle and spotted two joints and a plastic bag with nearly an ounce of pot and arrested Smith.
