Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Fred hopes to improve his employment opportunities by enrolling in Prinstone University. Though he must suffer the hazing process at the hands of snotty upper classmen who are decades younger than he is, Fred ultimately emerges as Big Man on Campus when he is drafted for the Varsity Football team just before the big game against Shale U. Note in this episode how Fred's boss "Mr. Slate" looks nothing like the Mr. Slate who appears in later episodes (a common Hanna-Barbera quirk, as witness the many shapes and forms of Yogi Bear's Ranger Smith!)
