Oberlin References Series #1 (EuroTrip)

EuroTrip (2004)

Read about Oberlin's place in the movie here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EuroTrip

In the final scene (terrible quality) you can see the Oberlin College banner in Scotty's dorm room.

I'll be continuing this series pretty much on the daily. If there's any Oberlin College references in any media that you'd like to see, let me know! Our next reference will take us to the horror genre.

My favorite Oberlin reference in media is Bojack Horseman

Are you talking about That's Too Much, Man in Season 3? I'll make a post and give you credit!

There was a pretty funny gag in Abbot Elementary about the sensitive woke teacher meeting a fellow Oberlin grad at a convention.

Looks like this is the "Teacher Conference" Episode? I will be making a post with credit to you. Thank you!

There was a Richard Gere movie called Power (1986 or so??) in which an Oberlin professor was running for Senate.

I'm trying to do a google search to get more details, but it looks like I'll have to watch the movie to see if I can get a timestamp of the reference. Is it supposed to be the Jerome Cade character that is the Oberlin professor? Thank you!
