I would like to see more work from universities and less of the
flying logo variety.  The screening rooms usually carry the overflow
that can't be fit into the film night--some really good stuff gets
bumped because it's too long, or someone decides that flying logos en
masse is somehow better.  There is also independent stuff that may
not be technically slick, due to lack of funds and equipment, that 
displays real creative breadth.
