Sylvia Sidney goes to college, intending to study chemistry. Phillips Holmes -- top-billed, despite this being Miss Sidney's story -- and Norman Foster compete for her. Foster is too smooth, and Miss Sidney's sorority sister, Claudia Dell, tells her all of Foster's lines. Then Holmes is sent down, leaving with only a few dollars from Foster. Unknown to anyone, Miss Sidney has fallen pregnant

It's a remarkably adults story, pre-code at its finest, with only a few suggestive shots of co-eds' naked legs to show the sort of story that the Production Code would ban. Some of the other lovely co-eds include Martha Sleeper and Dorothy Libaire in her screen debut. Bing Crosby and the Rhythm Boys perform a couple of songs.
