  2. Basics • Log Line: • After receiving both a pink slip and divorce papers on the same day, a thirty three year old father of two decides to enroll at the local college in an attempt to rebuild his life while rediscovering interests he had long forgotten about more than a decade ago. • High Concept: • Old School meets Big Bang Theory

  3. Premise • Look out Michigan State University, here comes thirty three year old Joseph Callahan. Recently laid off by General Motors and served divorce papers from his soon to be ex-wife Rebecca, Joe uses his severance money and takes advantage of the government program for laid off auto workers to return to college in an effort to start rebuilding his life. The always cool headed Joe has been informed that as a stipulation of his financial aid he is required to live in the campus dorms. Therefore, Joe says hello to the college life filled with classes, parties, dating, clicks and term papers. Together with a variety of misfit college students and his awkwardly shy suitemates (Eugene, Kenny and Duff), Joe teaches the boys about the lessons of life while they in turn teach him about college in the 21st century.
