Description
Timothy McTowell and Lester Dimbert are two legendary professors whose comedy classroom act has seen better days. Caught between the old and new at Belial College in Maine, they find themselves, in their late 70s, forced to retire. Yet they return to Belial as elderly students. Soon they get mixed up in all sorts of mayhem: a campaign to bring an obscene heavy metal band to campus, a twenty year-old student with disturbing ideas about love; and even the murder of the college president-a baffling crime with multiple suspects. It's unclear whether these curious old men-Tim and Les-are amazingly creative or just insanely demented. But whatever they are, they play key roles in a zany campus drama of revolutionary students, feckless college administrators, lively debates about love, and two uncanny deaths. Tim and Les, however ancient, bring seismic change to a college that once slept soundly near the stormy shores of the North Atlantic.
