showing rental videos

["Roegge, Kathleen" <Roegge.Kathleen@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,
	This has always been a gray area to me.  Can an instructor show a
commercial film , the title of the film is Trainspotting, that they have
rented from a local video store in a college auditorium to their class?
What types of restrictions need to be in place or do they need to ask for
permission from the film's distributor to show it?
