Occidental College is famous for being President Obama’s alma mater…but that’s not its only claim to fame. The LA Times says because of its proximity to Hollywood and “aggressive courting of the film industry,” the school’s campus is a favorite for casting directors. In the last year 16 productions were filmed on Occidental’s grounds—from Doritos commercials to the latest season of “Arrested Development.”
