WHAT: TV's most addictive black reality show, COLLEGE HILL,

the previous two seasons. While exploring the familiar
themes of the black college experience and boy/girl
relationships, the new cast of Season 3 turns up the heat
at Virginia State University. Tempers fly, tears flow,
and secrets are revealed as eight college students
struggle to live under one roof. From the camaraderie of
Homecoming celebrations and sexy hot tub scenes, to
break-ups and an emotional visit to Rosa Parks' funeral
-- emotions and conflicts are at an all-time high. From
classroom to chaos, the network's cameras are there 24/7
to catch all of the action. "Real" student woes, wonders
