Betty White could teach Lindsay Lohan a thing or two about a focused work ethic.

White is one working actor, and NBC has snagged her for their excellent ensemble comedy "Community" in a guest role spot.
 
White has more Emmy Awards than Trump has towers, and she will guest-star in the season premiere of NBC's hit comedy "Community," which airs Thursdays (8:00-8:30 p.m.) this fall.

White is cast as professor June Bauer, an esteemed, but slightly unhinged anthropology professor.

White was recently nominated for another Emmy for her work as host of a "Saturday Night Live" program in May.

White is now currently kicking major over-50 ass on TV land's "Hot in Cleveland."

"Community" stars Joel McHale, Chevy Chase, Donald Glover, Yvette Nicole Brown, Danny Pudi, Gillian Jacobs and Alison Brie.
