"The College Experience through Film"

As a second-semester freshman with growing college familiarity you will be provided with the opportunity to view and analyze college life as portrayed in film while examining your own experiences through in-class discussions, online response postings, and written reflection. Five themes/films will be discussed:

• Choosing/Attending College (Accepted, 2006)
• College Lifestyle and Activities (Animal House, 1978)
• Student Identity (Where the Boys Are, 1960)
• Diversity (Higher Learning, 1995)
• Teaching and Learning (The Paper Chase, 1973)
