Taj Badalandabad, the personal assistant to the legendary Van Wilder, has just graduated Coolidge College and is now on his way to England's Camford University. Taj is on a quest to follow in the footsteps of his father's legend as a ladies' man at Camford, beginning with membership to an exclusive campus Fraternal Guild, the Fox and Hounds. But when Taj arrives at the venerated campus, he quickly discovers he has not been accepted to the Fraternal Guild, and that the stuffy head of the Fox and Hounds--Pip Everett, the Earl of Grey--is, in fact, a wanker. Taj seeks out the only housing available on campus and finds himself suddenly "Head of House" for a group of student misfits. Taj also finds out he will be a history teacher to his new mates and that his teaching supervisor will be Charlotte Higginson, an English beauty with a wild streak who just happens to be dating Pip Everett. Taj decides to take on the challenge before him--not only will he transform the band of misfits into Big Men (and Woman) on Campus, he will give the Fox and Hounds and Pip a run for their money. At the campus Society Inaugural Ball, Taj announces that he and his new mates are starting their own exclusive society--the Cock and Bulls. And the Fox and Hounds will be meeting the Cock and at the venerable Camford Cup--an ongoing series of campus academic events and athletic competitions. Taj whips his band of adopted ruffians into the leanest, meanest and sexiest fraternal society ever to muss the sheets at Camford. His ingenuity is not lost on Charlotte as Taj does everything he can to draw her attention away from Pip. As he faces the first test of his new insights into the female sex, Taj realizes that sometimes you have got to let you're heart lead you, even if you know it's taking you places you're not supposed to go.
