Question
My boyfriend swears that the motto of California University is "where being smart is smart."  Can you confirm or deny this?

Answer
Hello Gracie,

Unfortunately, I cannot confirm or deny that the motto is what your boyfriend swears it to be. If I ever come across a scene that does answer your question, I'll be sure to follow up with you.

However, that quote does sound familiar for some reason to me. Maybe it was mentioned during David's video project for one of his classes by David or Nat who both appeared in said video project. That would be shown in the 5th season premiere, however I cannot get to my videotape copy of that episode at this time.

My apologies that I couldn't help you more at this time.

Take care,
Crystal

Expertise

I have seen all 10 seasons of 90210 and have every episode on tape to locate answers. My expertise is on the first 6 seasons and the characters Brenda and Dylan, but I will attempt to answer any question pertaining to the show. Please no scene/dialogue questions because they are very time-consuming and frustrating. However, I will be happy to clarify misunderstood dialogue due to whispering and such if I'm able to. I will attempt to answer any song question for the original airdates and syndication. NO DVD SONG QUESTIONS PLEASE. Please see my "Life Experience" in my profile for song question updates, it may pertain to your question.

Experience

I have every single episode on tape to find the answers. I watched and taped the show religiously. (All requests for copies of my videotapes/episodes will be declined.)
Update: The song used in "Crunch Time" during David's meth addiction is "Living In A Fantasy" by The Rainbow Band. Many thanks to the fellow 90210 Fan that contacted me with the info when they tracked it down. Also, the song used in "One Wedding and a Funeral" that Dylan & Toni dance to is "Nobody Knows Me" by Lyle Lovett. Same song is used during the scene where Dylan is crying while holding the wedding dress and then kitten. David & Donna's wedding song is "Spend My Life With You" by Eric Benet & Tamia. Same song was Steve & Janet's wedding song.

Education/Credentials
Pertaining to BH90210: fan since original airing on Fox going back to 1991. Saw 1st season from reruns & syndication.
