About The Film
(1946) Ware College is a small Black college in Ware, Ohio. Once prominent, it is now low in attendance, low in enrollment and low on money; and at a meeting with instructors Drury and Annabelle Brown, Dean Hargreaves reveals that CEO Benjamin Ware III, grandson of the college’s founder, claims the estate of his late grandfather is now also destitute, which they believe is untrue and a result of Annabelle’s having spurned his affections.
