Get Yourself a College Girl

Terry is threatened with expulsion because she has been secretly writing pop songs under an assumed name while enrolled as a music student at the conservative Wyndham College for Women. When her publisher Gary Underwood unknowingly reveals her double life to the college board, the trustees deem her behavior indecent and scandalous, threatening her future at the school.

Gary Underwood is Terry's publisher, but he is unaware that she is a student at Wyndham College. When he discusses her songwriting career or her pseudonym in conversations that reach the college, he inadvertently exposes her double life to the board of trustees, triggering the scandal.

Senator Morrison is a powerful California State figure and board member at Wyndham College. He is running for re-election and needs to court the youth vote. By helping Terry and appearing supportive of young people, he hopes to boost his political appeal and image with younger voters.

During the Sun Valley vacation, an embarrassing photograph of Morrison surfaces in the press. The exact nature of the photo is not detailed in the summary, but it threatens his re-election bid by damaging his carefully curated public image and undermines his attempts to appear relatable to young voters.

To counteract the bad publicity from the embarrassing photograph, Terry and the group conduct a telephone poll among young people at the resort. The poll demonstrates youth support for Morrison, which is meant to sway public opinion and help his re-election campaign by showing that younger voters favor him.

Lynne and her husband choose to spend the entire vacation in their room, away from the main social activities. They withdraw from the group dynamics and romantic entanglements happening around Terry, Gary, Armand, and the others, creating a contrast with the other couples' public flirtations.

The summary ends with the characters returning to Wyndham College, where Terry must face the aftermath of her scandal. While the political and personal tensions converge, the light-hearted tone suggests the situation is resolved through the youth support experiment and Morrison's shifting priorities, though specific resolution details are not provided.

The film features live performances by The Dave Clark Five, The Animals, and other acts throughout the Sun Valley vacation. These performances serve as entertainment and backdrop to the romantic entanglements and social dynamics, lending energy to the film while reinforcing its music-focused premise and providing a lively escape from the looming controversy.

Gary and Terry's connection begins as a professional publisher-artist relationship. However, as they interact more during the Sun Valley vacation, their initial professional connection evolves into genuine romantic attraction, becoming one of the main pairing storylines alongside Armand and Sue Ann.

Armand, Gary's artist friend, shows romantic interest in Sue Ann Mobley during the Sun Valley vacation. Their connection develops alongside Gary and Terry's romance, adding complexity to the group's holiday dynamics and creating another romantic entanglement among the couples.
