This is a teen comedy, a 'Snow White' for the, like, myspace generation. Only it's Sydney and the 'Seven Dorks', not dwarfs 'cos dwarfs are so gross. Sydney's new to college and wants to fill her late mums shoes by joining Kappa, her mums old sorority. But the Kappa sorority president, Rachel Witchburn, is a total bitch. And Sydney has got the hots hard for Rachel's ex, Matt, who is such a prince. Being real jealous about it, Rachel humiliates Sydney and kicks her out of Kappa. I, know! But Sydney, she's such a trooper and so uber nice to everyone, and so she joins up with these seven dorks. So Sydney helps the dorks be, like, less dorkish, and the dorks help Sydney hook up with Matt and get Rachel off her back.
