Plot summary
Silas and Jamal are underachieving stoners preparing for a college entrance exam. Silas has grown a new strain of marijuana from Ivory's ashes, while Jamal brings a cigar but no weed. They smoke together and discover that Ivory's ghost appears to them. During the test, the ghost supplies the answers, giving them perfect scores. Several schools offer scholarships, but Harvard's chancellor persuades them to attend because the university is under pressure to increase minority enrollment. At Harvard they meet Bart, Lauren, I Need Money, and roommates Jeffrey and Tuan. Dean Carl Cain tells them they must keep a 2.0 grade average to stay enrolled. Jamal joins the rowing team, and Silas enrolls in botany.
