University of Miami students Nikki Pindor, Sienna Long and Georgia Gay star in the just-launched reality micro-drama titled \u201cCampus Confidential: Miami,\u201d Peacock<\/a> announced on Monday, June 15.<\/p>\n

The show, divided into two chapters, will follow UM\u2019s social hierarchies and scandals, and it\u2019s now available to stream on the platform\u2019s mobile app.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The first chapter, titled \u201cThe Sorority Dropout,\u201d spans 27 episodes and follows Gay after she decided to leave her sorority \u2014 Delta Phi Epsilon <\/a>\u2014 and grappled with the decision of whether to transfer out of UM in the aftermath.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I had my advising appointment to drop out, I remember being so nervous to tell my advisor but she had said \u2018Once a Cane, always a Cane,\u2019\u201d Gay said. \u201cI\u2019ll always be so grateful for that. I love the U and all of the incredible experiences the school gave me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gay is no stranger to reality television. Her mother, Heather Gay, earned her own time in the spotlight through \u201cThe Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.\u201d<\/p>\n

The second portion, \u201cInfluencer Enemies,\u201d explores TikTok influencers Long and Pindor\u2019s viral online feud. Through 23 episodes, the series seeks to determine whether they can reconcile their relationship.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u2028Long and Pindor\u2019s feud began in response to The Miami Hurricane\u2019s Oct. 22 print edition<\/a>. Long took to TikTok to describe how upset she was when she was not featured on the front cover of The Hurricane\u2019s edition.<\/p>\n

Pindor then posted a TikTok that allegedly mocked Long. The feud grew increasingly public, with both continuing to post and Pindor writing that she had to meet with the dean.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Several weeks after the TikToks were posted, a small production company reached out to Long, informing her they were interested in creating a microdrama about UM.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know if I can trust someone who tried to get me kicked out of school,\u201d Pindor said in a clip of the show<\/a> Long posted to her Instagram.<\/p>\n

The clip features both women sitting at a table on campus, raising questions about filming rights and legal implications for UM. Procedure III of UM\u2019s filming guide<\/a> outlines that a \u201cscript\/storyboard\u201d must be submitted in advance of filming. The guide<\/a> also dictates the fees to shoot on campus, ranging from $2,500 to $20,000 for eight hours depending on the type of content being shot.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Hurricane reached out to the University for comment but has not yet received a response.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The series was originally set to star a large group but ended up narrowing its main cast down to three. Filming occurred on campus in late April and throughout May.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to Long, the girls are each being paid a few thousand dollars.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope it doesn\u2019t have a negative impact on the UM community,\u201d said Long. \u201cThe school\u2019s had a very positive impact on me, so I hope it brings positive attention to the school.\u201d<\/p>\n

Her segment, Long added, is not so much focused on the school but on the \u201cinterior drama and life in Miami.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gay echoed similar sentiments about wanting the show to leave a positive impact on UM and the students.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope the series helps show that no one\u2019s college experience is as seamless as social media makes it seem,\u201d she said. \u201cI had an amazing experience filming the series and I\u2019m so grateful I was given the opportunity to share my story. I think filming a show about your personal life takes a lot of introspection and can be challenging at times, but always worth it in the end.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Hurricane has not yet received a response from Pindor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
