Plot
Betty Forrester (Ruth Taylor), a vivacious flapper, arrives at Dexter College in her own flashy roadster, quickly establishing herself as one of the most talked-about girls on campus. Outgoing and flirtatious, she enjoys the attention of the male students, who trail after her wherever she goes. Though she plays the part of a co-ed vampire, leading them on with coquettish banter, Betty's motives are more complicated: she wants to attract the notice of the upright athletic coach, Harvey Porter (John Holland).
