Higher Learning

Director: John Singleton

Followed by a post screening discussion facilitated by Annie M. Kosar, Gender and Sexuality Center

Youngsters from different countries, races, and social background are forced to integrate when they all enroll in Columbus University. They all have their own problems, such as finance, harassment, personal safety, and self-doubt. Additionally, campus life seems to be causing a problem for everyone: racism. Students, already under pressure to perform in the classroom, on the track, or in front of their friends, are strained to the breaking point by prejudice, inexperience, and misunderstanding.
