MTV ‘reality’ show follows UW-Madison freshmen

MTV’s new “reality” show about four University of Wisconsin-Madison freshmen has a far more real feeling than most such programs.

Part of that comes from the fact that the four subjects of “College Life” – premiering at 9:30 p.m. Monday – are shooting their own stories with hand-held cameras. That means plenty of blurry images that stir college memories for some of us.

The first installment features plenty of drinking, lots of boy-girl stuff and even a bit of time devoted to studying in the half-hour weekly show.
