The Scene
The nearly 20-year-old North Campus Video is open 24-7, and students red-eyed from studying and other, more--well--boisterous activities can be found there at all hours. Of course, some of them come for the "adult room," which can be rowdy in its own right.

The Films
The store, which stocks over 2,600 DVDs, is known for its large classics, foreign and Oscars sections, as well as its cult section, which boasts some rarities like the Andy Warhol-produced "Trash." The "alternative lifestyles" (a.k.a. GLBT) section is fairly large; the animation shelves include not only the latest in Japanese anime, but also such decidedly non-kid selections as "Sextoons."

Move Over Videos
North Campus Video and the three Video Centrals in town share the same owner, who put his faith in DVDs years ago. Together, the four stores stock 20,000 DVD titles--the largest collection in the state, one employee said, and the seventh largest in the country.
