From the Video Vault
It’s been a great week for discovering randomly awesome video content made by colleges and universities. My favorites so far:
President’s Day at Macalester College.
A few years ago we did a consulting project for Macalester. As part of that project, I met with President Rosenberg – a really smart, really interesting, Dickens scholar. While it was clear at the time that he was a pretty funny guy, I had no idea he had something this hysterical up his sleeve:

William & Mary provides an unexpected look at campus statuary.
There’s a top-secret area of the William & Mary website for those in the know. Once you’ve clicked on the hidden link (hint: it’s on the homepage) you’re brought to a page showcasing quirky videos by and about WM. The latest addition? Lord Botetourt Makes a Movie. Statuary on the WM campus comes to life to discuss making a movie about the Stamp Act.
The top-secret video vault is maintained by WM Creative Services (@wm_creative)

OK Go’s newest music video features the Irish.
This one wasn’t produced by a college, but the Notre Dame Marching band is prominently featured. Good stuff.

I love the OK Go video, didn’t know it was Notre Dame’s band. The Mac video is amazing. Thanks for sharing that.
