The Collegians

Overview

The Collegians was a four year series of 46 two-reel films, in which the same players played the same roles through four years of college life, as envisioned by Hollywood's screenwriters of the mid-1920's. The Collegians was the title of the first episode in 1925. The fourth series, which began in January 1929, was made "with dialogue and full sound effects," according to the 26 January 1929 Exhibitors Herald-World. The series ended in September 1929. Many aspects of film The Plastic Age were carried over to The Collegians.
