14- This is my number one annoyance. I hate that even if I own the movie and want to show it to a class or any group of people it is against the law. I already knew the answer to this question because I have run into this problem twice.
The first time was when I was preparing lessons for my Sunday School class. The lesson book has activities with video clips and a sidebar on the page warned teachers that it was against the law to show movies to students. I thought it was very weird and decided that I did not care and that no one was going to care in my church. I bet they actually have no idea about the law, they are kind of behind the times.
The second time was at the beginning of this school year. The RA's in my building were talking about how we could no longer show movies in the lobby of our dorms. No one had realized that it was against the law before but now that UMF knew, they were going to take it seriously.
I find this law so ridiculous. I know that the fee for getting permission is really cheap but if it is so cheap and easy why hasn't UMF gotten one so that we can play movies on campus. And I should probably check and see if my church has one, and if not bring it to their attention. This law just bugs me a lot.
