Plot Homer is given a surprise inspection of his work station, but he doesn't know what to so, so he presses blindly at the controls causing a meltdown. The inspectors force Burns to send Homer to college otherwise they will take legal action. No college in town will allow Homer to enrol. But Burns makes arrangements for Homer to go to Springfield U. Homer thinks that the Dean is evil and constantly try to prank him. Homer tries to get three new nerds to pull a prank with the Springfield A & M mascot, Sir Oinksalot. But when the three nerds are expelled they move into the Simpson home annoying Marge, Bart and Lisa. Homer tries to get the nerds back into college, but instead runs the dean over they're let back in anyway, and Homer forgets about an exam, studies for it, but still fails.
