You may have built schools in third world countries and cleaned contaminated water from villages, but you have never tried to get a kid into Princeton. John Pressman:
Neither have you. Portia Nathan:
*I am not trying.* I am an admissions officer. I am just helping *you* try, as I would with any outstanding student who may have been overlooked. There's nothing improper going on here. [John winks at Porcia]

Movie Summary
Straitlaced Princeton University admissions officer, Portia Nathan is caught off-guard when she makes a recruiting visit to an alternative high school overseen by her former college classmate, the freewheeling John Pressman. Pressman has surmised that Jeremiah, his gifted yet very unconventional student, might well be the son that Portia secretly gave up for adoption many years ago.
