This film was filmed at UC Riverside (school scenes/football game) and USC (house scenes and party scenes) in September of 2000.
In the library scene, you may have noticed that has been in the movie Boys and Girls with Claire Forlani (the UC Berkeley Library scene)
All the people you see in the cafeteria scene, outside of the dorm scene etc, are actually students of UC Riverside...
If you don't believe me, here are some photos from my webpage that show we were there when they filmed the cafeteria scene and also the one where Jake walks into the large lecture hall (very steep btw) with the kegs attached to his legs. If that lecture hall looked rather familiar, it was the focus of the last scene in "Slackers"

As you all know the football game did not look very good because many people were away getting ready for Midterms and Thanksgiving break. During that scene, other than the guy that had a speaking part, they used brothers from Kappa Alpha Order.
My guys thought it was hilarious. We were actually pretty surprised that they chose UC Riverside. I wish it was shot better though. I found myself in one scene and my old roommate in another, which came out kinda weird.
Rumors had the movie budget at about 1 million dollars.
As a UC Riverside student, I found it ironic, because A. Our Greek Popluation is not very high :-( B. We do not have a Greek Row and C. We don't have a football team :-(
