    College Confidential (1960)

    Share

    Al Zugsmith tries to outdo High School Confidential (1958) for Universal with this one and he almost makes it, in spite of Walter Winchell and Earl Wilson.

    Sociology professor Steve McInter (Steve Allen) is conducting a survey at Collins College about the lifestyles of the young people at that small-town college campus.

    Some of the good citizens are upset by his sociological survey when they find out it includes questions about sex!

    When reporter Betty Duquesne (Steve Allen’s real-life wife, Jayne Meadows) receives an anonymous tip-off that the good professor is engaging in the corruption of youth, and Steve’s past comes back to haunt him, all hell breaks loose.

    It takes an amazing amount of violence and sex (both overt and covert) before calm is restored to the campus, but what can one expect when the student body is Mamie Van Doren and Conway Twitty.
