Oye, por ahí viene Bill Cosby. Oyele.

Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? I'm
watching the ball game.

We have to leave here in ten minutes.
We're taking an airplane, you know. I

know, Dad, but the game just went into
extra heating.

Are you packed?

Well, not yet, but I'm mentally packed.
I know exactly what I'm taking. Well,

how would you like to be physically left
behind?

Okay, Dad. Okay, Uncle Pat.

I'm leaving for Hillman today.

The president of the college who's been
there 53 years is retiring.

And my mom and dad are all excited about
it.

Uh -huh.

I'll be back on Monday.

And if you need to call me, I'm staying
at the Hyatt Regency. Call me any time,

day or night. No.

I'll call you, okay?

No.

I'll talk to you when I get back.

Okay. Goodbye, Audrey.

What are you doing now?

Dad, I just had to make a few more
calls.

No, you don't.

Dad, these are my closest friends. I
gotta say goodbye to them. How many?

Nine.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Who are you
calling next?

Joanne Newton.

All right, you go up and get your
luggage.

Bring the luggage down, then you call
Joanne Newton. And you say goodbye to

nine times and tell her to pass it on to
the other eight people on the list, all

right?

Okay. Okay, fine. No, no. Get the
luggage. Get the luggage. Get the

the luggage. Get the luggage.

What are you doing, dear?

Mommy forgot to pack towels.

You don't need towels.

But how are we going to drive after...

No, the hotel we're going to is a very
lovely hotel.

They will give us towels.

They will?

Yes. When we arrive, you look in the
bathroom. You probably see shampoo

You look around the room. They have a
bowl of fruit there. And because they

you're coming, you'll probably see
flowers all over the place.

Daddy, we should live in a hotel.

I will discuss that with your mother.
But in the meantime, would you get

Come on, everybody. Let's go. Hurry.

Yes. I pulled the car around. All right.

Don't you look beautiful?

Well, thank you. You look like a woman
who should be walked around Hillman

Campus over to Miller's Pond.

And will I be walked by my college
sweetheart?

Mm -hmm. And will you rendezvous with
him under the maple tree near Delaney

Hall? Of course.

Mm -hmm.

Ooh.

On behalf of Captain Stevens and your
New York -based crew, we'd like to thank

you for flying Eastern Airlines.

Janine, can I borrow your... Oh,
Phyllis, quick, give me a hand. What's

My mom and sister are in the lobby.
They'll be here any second. Where do I

this? Anywhere.

Janine, why did you wait until your
mother was in the lobby to start

your room? I was going to do it this
morning, but I overslept. I almost

make it to the airport to pick them up.
Uh, excuse me, are you going to do

anything about Mr.

April?

Mom!

In here.

Oh, hello.

Hi. Hi.

Sandra? This is Phyllis. This is my mom.
Hi, nice to meet you.

Yeah, my father's giving my brother a
tour around campus, and my sisters are

with my grandparents.

I hope I get to meet them later.

Oh, you will.

So, what took you guys so long? Oh, we
were downstairs in the lobby. I told Mom

that we should stay down there a little
longer because you probably need the

time to clean up your room. Oh!

Well,

I have to go. Mrs. Huxtable, your
daughter is a wonderful young woman.

you. And her neatness is an inspiration
to us all.

How nice.

Mom, I did not tell her to say that.

You know, Denise, when I used to go to
school here, my parents would come and

visit me.

I would clean my room up at the last
minute.

Really? Mm -hmm. And I had a special
place where I kept all my dirty clothes.

Um, that's not my drawer. No, but these
are your clothes.

Oh, don't feel bad, Denise. Mom found my
dirty clothes when she first visited me

at Princeton.

That's right, and they were in the
drawer, too. So fear not, young lady.

an inherited trait, as I did the same
thing.

How are you doing down here? I'm fine.

I miss you.

I miss seeing that face in the house. I
miss you, too.

Denise, don't let it go to your head.
She was like this with me, too.

Hey, you guys, I want you to meet the
rest of the girls on my floor.

Okay.

Mom?

Oh, yes, I'm coming. There's just one
more thing I wanted to check.

And this is it.

What?

Philosophy 101.

9 a .m., Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

I didn't know you took philosophy.

Oh, yes.

Dr. Harris.

And I love the class. The man gave the
most extensive outside reading

assignments on campus. And he used to
say to everybody, your brain is the most

important muscle in your body. And I'm
going to whip it into shape.

He sounds tough.

Oh, yeah. I don't want to brag, but I
was one of his prize students.

Excuse me.

May I help you? Dr. Harris.

That's correct.

It's me.

Well, I see that.

And who are you?

Heathcliff Huxtable, sir.

Ah, yes.

Heathcliff Huxtable. You used to sit
over here.

Yes, sir. You remember.

Of course I do. You always sat over
there.

Right behind the basketball player.

So I couldn't see you sleeping in class.

You slept in class? Well, I'd say my
eyes could remember thinking of myself.

While breathing deeply.

I take it you're his son?

Yes, sir. Theodore Huckable. Nice to
meet you.

Pleasure's mine.

You know, I'd like to hear a little bit
more about my dad.

Well, no, I'm sure that Dr. Harris is
very busy, so if you don't want to...

no, no. Always have time for a former
student, especially one as memorable as

your father.

Well, Dad saved up your class.

Splendid. What else did he say?

Well, he also said that he was your
prized student.

The name is Heathcliff Huxtable, right?

Yes, sir. I guess I could have given you
a prize for your tenacity.

When you didn't know the answers, you
always hung in there.

Your father would try to wear me down.

Really? How?

I'd ask him a question, and he'd do
everything but answer it.

I'd say, uh, Mr. Huxtable, what did
Descartes mean when he said, I think,

therefore I am?

And your father would say, Professor,
that's a very interesting question.

And I'd say, yes, it is. Would you
answer it, please?

But I did learn. Yes, you did.

By the end of the year, you were my most
improved student.

And it's good to see you. Thank you, Dr.
Harrison. By the way, I think what

Descartes meant was that the very nature
of thought is a primary proof of

existence.

Very good, Mr. Huxtable. Well, actually,
it's Dr.

Huxtable.

Doctor! Yeah.

Of what?

Physician, O -B -G -Y -N. You don't say.

Yes. Young man, your father is living
proof that a human education can save

anybody.

We even have a mother in here, too.
Really?

I'm married to Claire Hanks.

Claire Hanks.

Extraordinary student.

Class leader.

She married you?

Yes, sir. How you do that?

It is lovely.

Why do you think the president invited
us to his house?

Cliff, have you done something wrong?
No, sir. When you were in school, I

got calls from Dr. Haynes about your
shenanigans.

Well, I think today he has invited us
over here to ask me to be a part of the

ceremony. I think that's why he's called
me here.

I'm just happy you're not in trouble.

Welcome. Dr.

Haynes, it's a pleasure to see you
again. Please, everybody sit down.

Thank you.

Russell Huxtable, class of 1936.

So glad to see you. Thank you, sir. Do
you remember my wife, Anna?

Of course. It's good to see you again.

Thank you.

Hello, Dr. Haynes.

Claire.

Cliff. How are you, sir? This is a
special treat.

And I see you brought the family.

Yes, sir.

Hunter, we're still not pleased about
you choosing Princeton over Hillman.

Sorry.

I'm going to Hillman. Good for you.

And what are you going to study?

One of your writers, a veterinarian, and
a senator.

I think if you're going to be all of
those things, you'd better enroll in

Hillman right now.

Dr. Haynes, I'm really looking forward
to today's ceremony.

No, you're not.

Only reason you came here was to sing in
the choir, dear. I will admit I am

excited about it. I am too.

I can't wait to hear your lovely voice.

Thank you.

And Cliff.

Yes, sir.

There's something special I'd like for
you to do at the ceremony today.

Anything you say, sir.

I would be very honored if at today's
event you would act as the master of

ceremony. All right.

I accept, sir.

You were saving this as a surprise for
me, weren't you?

Yes.

Ever since this morning when the man who
was supposed to be the master of

ceremonies got sick.

Good afternoon. My name is Dr.

Heathcliff Huxtable, class of 19... I

would ask that the women this afternoon
be fair

when I introduce the next president of
Hillman. I ask that you not become

overly exuberant at the point of making
yourselves look silly.

So... I will introduce a woman that you
have known as a

fine professor for the last 18 years.
Ladies and gentlemen, the next

president of Hillman College, Dr.

Barbara Bracey.

Thank you, Dr. Hudson.

When I accepted the position of
president of this college, I did so for

one reason.

Because it's Hillman.

However, I have not always felt so
confident about being here.

I take you back to my senior year at
Hillman.

I had a perfect 4 .0 grade average.

And was applying to graduate school.

But I had doubts.

A great many doubts about my ability to
compete against the graduates

of schools like Harvard, Princeton,
Stanford.

the University of Chicago, and many of
the fabled academic institutions of this

nation.

I took my concern to Dr.

Haynes. He listened to me patiently, and
when I had finished, he leaned

forward and said to me, young lady and A
student at

Hillman, is an A student anywhere.

Therefore, to the question of why, with
all of the other opportunities

presented to me, I chose to serve as
president of Hillman, I simply respond,

because...

It's Hillman.

Now, ladies and gentlemen, the Hillman
College Choir

featuring Clare Hanks, class of

1905.

I present the man we are here to honor
today, our good friend, Dr.

Zechariah.

So many times since I've announced my
retirement, I've been asked what it

is I expect to miss the most.

Well, I don't expect to miss anything.

You still see me, and I will still see
you.

I'll be, as you young people are wont to
say, hanging around.

And if Dr.

Bracey gets tired of seeing me and wants
to send me home, she should know that

my wife doesn't want me hanging around
the house either.

Now, permit me, if you will, to beg your
indulgence for no more than a moment,

during which I will identify those
topics which I will not

address on this, my farewell day.

Those topics are social justice.

I'm not going to talk about that.

Racial harmony. I'll not talk about
that.

And peace on earth.

I will not make mention of that.

Now, let me make it lucid that I am
eschewing these subjects simply

because... You Hillman students who have
been here for four or more years know

where I stand on those matters.

We need to move on to the future,
perhaps 20 or more years, when you

students will be twice the age that you
are now, excelling in your chosen

profession.

and you are interrupted by a telephone
call from a recent Hillman graduate who

wants to meet with you in the hopes that
you might share some of your wisdom

with him or her, and maybe give him or
her a job, I

strongly suggest to you now that you not
instruct the youngster in

the myriad of ways by which he can catch
public transportation to come to your

office next Tuesday.

Get in your car and go to where he is
and pick him up.

Invite him to partake of a sumptuous
meal.

After all, that splendid young person is
a Hillman graduate.

And he should never, never, never walk
alone.

Thank you.
