Interesting explanation of why there are so few television shows about college and why the ones that are created usually don’t do very well in the ratings. The author claims that some of the problem is a lack of good stories to tell, part is that college is not a shared experience that all of society can relate to (only about 25% of us have attended a four year residential college), and part of the problem is that old standby, Nielsen Media Research, which measures TV consumptions in family homes, not college dorms, apartments, or public venues like bars.
