Movie Outline- Minority Scholarship

The idea for this film came in it's original form back in the late 90's when I saw MTV do this special anti-hate crime week I think when Matthew Shepherd was killed for simply being gay and I kept hearing stupid stories that bothered me like one that finally got the best of me when I heard a white college student on a football scholarship was drunk yelling at a black female student telling her she was just a quota filler
Warning: This story takes place in a society somewhat of like our own but not exactly, it mocks complete reverse discrimination where jobs and college opportunities are portioned out evenly between all nationalities, creeds, sexual orientations forcing people to mix with people of all types regardless of compatibility and personality conflicts
Genre: Satirical Comedy
Plot: Five social outcasts from five different schools are harassed on a daily basis in their small conservative schools. Doing well in school to prove themselves they aim for scholarships to Ivy League schools where intellectuals like themselves will accept them. However ironically due to affirmative action and business politics all the major colleges get their quotas filled early and the five outcasts go to the University of California which filled its quota of religious fanatics, racists, gun freaks, jocks etc. After making some bad first impressions they meet in a school club founded by Jeff Herm called Exposing the Conspiracies (ETC) discussing the controversial issues they can't talk about peaceable with others. Together they unite under a common message and decide to exploit themselves in campus rock band. James Knight-bass, Dylan Zimmerman-guitar, John Taupin-keyboards, Jeff Herm-drums, Cindy Marx-vocals. They never hit it big but maintain a large underground following being the voice to a large outcast minority
