There was nothing more annoying as a college student then losing your student ID. And there weren't usually movie stars around to find it for you.
So, proving once again that he's the nicest guy in Hollywood, Tom Hanks cause a bit if a stir with this tweet last night.
Lauren! I found your Student ID in the park. If you still need it my office will get to you. Hanx. pic.twitter.com/Ee9kK4V4qf

Lauren, a student at Fordham University in New York was tracked down after her roommate and one of her professors noticed Hanks' tweet. She told E! Online than the whole thing has been 'a whirlwind':
"My first reaction was, is this real? Is this the real Tom Hanks and not some fan group? But then it all made sense with how I lost it the other day."
@tomhanks We've spoken with the student. If you have someone email howe@fordham.edu, we'll arrange to get the ID card back to her. Thanks.

Lauren, who explains the ID must have fallen while taking her phone out, says she has contacted Tom via his Facebook but she has yet to hear back.
"I had to deactivate the card and get a new one," she tells us. "I had to pay $20 to get a new card, so I would love it if I could get my old card back and get my $20 back."
Spoken like a true student.
