   The School

   Hawthorne University is a prestigious all-male institute in the sunny coastal college town of Santa Flora, California that has just begun admitting women. With one of the most decorated athletic programs in the country as a Division I school, the football team is its crown jewel. Toxic masculinity, chauvinism, queerphobia, and misogyny often runs amok among its student body, reflective of the dated attitudes towards gender and sexuality in 2006. Its architecture is a mixture of California Mission and Spanish Colonial Revival style buildings and modern/international style for its newer buildings.
