Plot Synopsis

THE QUAD is a one-hour drama series that follows the life of university president Dr. Eva Fletcher, her administration, and the students at Georgia A&M University, a fictional historically Black college and university (HBCU). The freshmen are led by Sydney, Eva's rebellious daughter; Cedric, a talented rapper on the come up; and BoJohn, who is looking to achieve victory and success as the school's first white starting quarterback. The staple of Georgia A&M is its prestigious marching band led by their charismatic yet ruthless leader, Art Diamond. Art's power and influence proves a challenge to Eva but she manages to find strong allies in Ella Grace, Dean of the history department, and football coach Eugene Hardwick.
