In Popular Culture
In the film Remember the Titans, Gettysburg College is the site of the summer football camp. An important scene involves Coach Herman Boone waking the players early to jog to the battlefield, where he delivers a speech on racism. Although the coach specifically mentioned once that Gettysburg College was the site of the camp, a different college was used for filming. The campus depicted in the film displays Gothic Revival architecture, but the actual campus of Gettysburg College is primarily Georgian.

Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:
“The man of large and conspicuous public service in civil life must be content without the Presidency. Still more, the availability of a popular man in a doubtful State will secure him the prize in a close contest against the first statesman of the country whose State is safe.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“The hatred of the youth culture for adult society is not a disinterested judgment but a terror-ridden refusal to be hooked into the, if you will, ecological chain of breathing, growing, and dying. It is the demand, in other words, to remain children.”
—Midge Decter (b. 1927)
