Indoctrinate U has screened at nearly thirty colleges and universities since MPI launched its campus tour in January. It's been pleasing crowds and provoking conversation everywhere it goes.
Most recently, the film travelled to UC Irvine for a screening co-hosted by the College Republicans and the Zionists of America. Maloney's movie offers an "uncensored and surprisingly amusing look at the anti-intellectualism that is becoming more prominent in college campuses and university offices nationwide," the student paper reported.
Indoctrinate U also drew strong praise at East Tennessee State, where the Society for Intellectual Diversity held a screening. Co-sponsored by the College Republicans, the Sociology department, and the Anthropology department, the screening won praise from a skeptical student journalist. "I decided to go to this event because I feel that, despite its decidedly conservative political undertones, the movement to ensure the rights of students and faculty at universities is an important one," she wrote. "With obvious sincerity, [the president of SID] made it very clear that the purpose of the organization is to get the word out to students of their right to learn in an educational institution which is free of indoctrination to a certain ideology. I thought to myself, 'That's something I can support. Maybe this movie will be better than I am expecting.' And in a way, it was. 'Indoctrinate U' also served as commentary on the state of intellectual freedom on college campuses through the utilization of anecdotal evidence and 'guerilla journalism.'"
Indoctrinate U will screen at UC Santa Cruz on May 21.
