You know that movie Accepted?
It's the most inspiring, uplifting movie ever.
Brings happy tears to my eyes. Really.
This movie is the SHIT.
It. Is. The. SHIT.
Bartleby Gaines is my hero.


In order to become accredited, a school must meet 3 requirements. You must have a facility, a curriculum and a faculty.
Uh, we have a common room, we have dorm rooms. Uh, we have a skateboard ramp. We got a tiki bar. Umm...
They have leased an old mental hospital.

Your curriculum?
Our curriculum?
Do you have a course book? A comprehensive list of your available classes?
Oh yeah absolutely.
This is a joke. "Slacking 101"? Tell me Mr. Gaines, how does one major in bumper stickers?


Nah, I'm not gonna answer your question, 'cause you guys have already made up your minds. I'm an expert in rejection, and I can see it on your faces. And it's too bad that you judge us by the way we look and not by who we are. Just because you want us to be more like them, when the truth is we're not like them. And I am damn proud of that fact.

Your phony school demeans real colleges everywhere!
Why? Why can't we both exist? Huh?
You can have your grades, and your rules, and your structures and your ivory towers, and then we'll do things our way.
Why do we have to conform to what you want?
Your curriculum is a joke. And you, sir, are a criminal.
You know what, you're the criminal. Cause you rob these kids of their creativity and their passion. That's the real crime!

And again, Bartleby Gaines is my hero. Such a genius.
