A new twist on the campus flick

Campus movies are, for understandable reasons, cult classics among college students. From The Graduate to Revenge of the Nerds to Good Will Hunting to Legally Blonde, they tend to capture something essential about the pivotal years during which one is at once an independent adult and an oversized adolescent. Those years of studying and party-going, of endless experimentation and, ideally, gradual maturation, are for many Americans synonymous with life itself--or at least with some of the most important moments and memories in life. That's probably one reason why campus films are so eternally popular--and it's one reason, too, why Indoctrinate U ought to take campus culture by storm. It's not your typical college movie--but it tells us a lot about what has become typical on campus, and it also exposes for us the frighteningly illiberal aspects of an experience that many regard as the apex of personal expressive freedom.

2008 will see Indoctrinate U coming to campuses across the country. Kicking off with a screening at LSU -- Shreveport on January 29 at 7 PM and following that with a showing at San Diego State on February 13, Indoctrinate U is bound to be one campus film that students will never forget.
