Exclusive: Greek Dad Comes from A Different World

Cyprus-Rhodes student Ashleigh Howard's pop is no less than Hillman College grad Dwayne Wayne.

Kadeem Hardison, who played Dwayne on the Cosby Show spin-off A Different World, will guest-star on ABC Family's Greek next season, TVGuide.com has learned exclusively. He will play proud parent Brian Howard.

Ashleigh is played by Amber Stevens, daughter of TV/radio personality Shadoe Stevens.

Ashleigh's pop pays a visit as part of Cyprus-Rhodes University's father-daughter weekend event.

For that same occasion, Thomas Calabro (of the Melrose Places old and new) will reprise his role as Rebecca's dad.
