Madrone

Nate shares with Jane a major component of his personal philosophy. His truth. But he also tells her how the German student from Heidelberg University said that the truth is that there is no truth. When he tries to enroll at UC Santa Cruz, he discovers UCSC’s truth about what it seeks in a student has nothing to do with the innate truth of the individual. And if the paradox of truth and lies isn’t already totally frustrating, he has to listen to Jane’s dorm mate Maddie tell him how her major course of study is truth, and the lies of truth slowly seep into Nate's consciousness.
