The Clements featured in a campus film shown to 500 alumni. Originally planned as a means of bringing alumni in closer contact with the University, the film was later scheduled to be shown at alumni gatherings throughout the country. It was filmed under the direction of the Metropolitan Moving Picture company of Detroit and general manager A.B. Jewett. Shooting was paid for by the university. A Michigan Daily article noted: “especially effective among the pictures taken are those of the Clements library and of the football games played last fall. A number of rare volumes possessed by the library are shown in the scenes taken there.” The film adopted a loose narrative structure of a returning alumnus and his son and daughter who greeted him and showed him around the campus.
