SMU in RAD movie

[Junior]

I wish someone with the skilz could put together a YouTube video of SMU mentions and appearances in TV and film. It would be impressive. For a little ol' private school in Texas, SMU has had more than its share of shots and shout-outs in Movies and TV.

These are the ones I could think of off the top of my head:

Born of the Fourth of July
Talk Radio
Seniors (Dennis Quaid's first movie, and Animal House ripoff)
Mars Needs Women (scenes from an SMU-Baylor football game at the Cotton Bowl!)
Jerry Maguire (SMU is the alma mater of "Cush" the hotshot QB - you see a poster of him in an SMU uniform in the backgroung)
The West Wing (SMU is the president's alma mater)
Dallas (countless episodes showing Lucy Ewing on campus)
Gilligan's Island (one of The Professor's degrees is from SMU...he lists an alphabet soup of alma maters)
Celebrity (an NBC mini-series in the 1980s)

I'm sure there are many more references to SMU. It would be fun to see them compiled in one video.

VICE-president's alma mater...

All the Walker Texas Ranger episodes filmed on campus.

All the Walker Texas Ranger episodes filmed on campus.

Some of those scenes were filmed in my classroom there. I was slightly surprised one day to walk in and find chuck Norris there and all my kids crammed elsewhere.

West Wing: President's alma mater was Notre Dame.

West Wing: President's alma mater was Notre Dame.

SMU was actually the VP's alma mater on West Wing

Billy on Melrose Place went to SMU. It was mentioned in at least one episode. Meh.

I am actually late to this thread, but tell me Dooby, were you a little bit hesitant to mention this SMU factoid?

Melrose Place had been off the air for 12 years when you posted this.

It would be like me posting some obscure fact about Ally McBeal.....not that there's anything wrong with that

I have t seen this one listed yet. But Charlie Wilson's War (Aaron Sorkin Film also did The West Wing), one Charlie's constituent'a daughter goes to SMU Law and she is hot. I also have a screen shot from Jerry Maguire showing "Cush" in an SMU uniform and it is blue!

There was also a mention in one of the episodes of In Plain Sight (USA network). One of the characters mentions that four generations of her family went to SMU.
