While they are singing, his family is behind them and his mother turns to her other son and says, "At least they coulda sang something EVERYBODY knows!" LOL!!!

You can't be serious. If even one of your students is serious, I'm scared that a movie storyline can't be separated from real life. Just...damn. *sigh*
Recently, I wore a SGRho shirt with the 10 pearls and 2 rubies in the Sigma. A colleague that I'm cool with simply asked, "I know that the letters are for your sorority, but what's with the red and white dots on the Sigma?" I explain that they are the sorority jewels that have a special significance that are dear to all sorority sisters. She replies, "Oh. It's kinda hard to imagine white and red dots as pearls and rubies. But no one else has rubies? Why does your sorority?"
....
I could only look at her like she was stupid because I don't recall the last time I've ever seen large pearlesque balls on someone's shirt. So that makes no sense for no one. But the look on my face probably said, "Didn't I just tell yo' dumb arse that it has significance to the sisters IN the sorority? If I wanted to tell you......, I would've told you immediately. Why doesn't your IT brain comprehend that???" But I just said as nicely as I could, "The info on the rubies is only for members of the sorority. I'm sorry I can't say more." I think the look on my face (I have a hard time hiding what I'm thinking) has kept her from addressing anything Greek with me again.
