In one of the film's opening segments, there is a statement to the effect that it is the first student-produced movie on any campus in America. I am trying to verify this claim. So .... do any of you C&U archivists out there have, or know about, student-produced films which pre-date 1916? Please reply to me personally. Thanks!
