I wouldn't worry much about it being shown at a university. If you don't offer beer with the ticket...most kids aren't going in. They all have better things to do than watch movies.

Professors will offer extra credit or sometimes require students to view a particular movie. This spring, my college showed Moore's "Bowling for Columbine." The place was packed because three professors either made it mandatory or extra credit. I went voluntarily to debate with the discussion panel after the movie.

The people who are going aren't students; they're the usual crowd from 'Nebraskans for Peace', etc.. That doesn't bother me; what bothers me is that my tax dollars are paying for it.
