University of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ graduates everywhere will recognize the setting of this 1980s campus comedy.

Administrators at the UA first approved filming of the movie on campus and then revoked it. 

"We were concerned that the movie does not portray campus life in a representative way," Dudley B. Woodard Jr., vice president for administrative services and member of the university's executive staff, said in a 1983 Star story.

Later, after a meeting with senior UA officials, movie producers and members of the city and state film commissions, the UA made an about-face.

The UA agreed to let "Nerds" film in ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ if the director reduced the shooting schedule to avoid disrupting campus activities, shot the lurid scenes elsewhere, took advice from fraternities, and did not mention the UA anywhere in the film, according to a 2007 Star story.

From a 2007 Star story: "The film called for a pond to be put in on what was then the Tubac Country Club's 16th hole. Golfers are still making like Costner and shanking balls into Tin Cup Lake on the fourth hole of the Tubac Golf Resort & Spa's Rancho Nine course."
