[cemerica47]

[UnicornCivilWar]

Really great school. I stayed at mac for a summer camp for 2 weeks. I plan to apply there this winter! It's pricey but I think its worth it

[weikaolun]

Soooooo great.

[drewfriends127]

the tour... with the bell... i could NOT stop laughing!!

that is why people choose mac.

[pchels224]

this is one of the things that sparked my interest in macalester.....i laughed sooo hard when u first saw it....great video

[glassandgold]

Refreshing to see a college president have the chutzpah to be the brunt of this tongue-in-check humor. Any idea of who the mastermind behind this video might be? Sure would be interesting to know a bit about inner working discussions regarding this concept.

[LukePiewaker]

My sister goes to Mac :)

[pbourget]

This guy is good!

It takes being on the edge in Higher Education to standout. I like the video. I found the video in doing doctoral dissertation research. My dissertation topic is Facebook and Twitter as instructional aides in Higher Education.

[HVXSilverstar]

I actually laughed aloud... and not at you. thanks for making the video.

This President rocks! It would be fun to work with him!

[SagaciousPenguin]

GREAT video. Cheers to Macalester from Stetson University.

[nmmichalak]

I'm from St. Thomas and I think this is awesome. I love your president!

[michnels2]

"it's fully tax deductible" asking small children for a donation .. so funny!

love it.. keep it up amy!

[Jangle2007]

Especially funny that a Prius (a tree-hugger, socially responsible, left-leaning, eco friendly vehicle) passes in the background.

[frmsteve]

How is it that a school called "Mac" has the burger king's brother for a mascot?

Well done Mac. Many little gems here ("not Obama, Rosenberg")

[Gilimashi]

This is a pretty good advertisement towards Mac. I wish Gustavus had this sort of thing with our president. he is pretty active ...but...in a video would also be good ...haha

[kevinwhinnery]

Excellent hegemeony and sex bell references!

[penserdenkenlang]

Well I thought Brian was a great college president before, but this is over the top. I can't stop watching this video.

[andysemakula]

well l take that back was just joking like the president lol

[andysemakula]

well l guess that guy is a president of clown nothing serious goes on at mac apart from jokes and fun and kids running around eating cornflakes and icecream no studying just messing about all day

I don't know if you are a mac student, but we have an average of 3-6 hours of homework a night. This institution is grueling, and it is really nice to see us relaxing once in awhile. If your comment was supposed to be taken comically, I apologize. :)

[Ethikz]

Much funnier than I expected. Someone rung the bell during a tour, Hegemony, classic!

[NickGrondinMusic]

Nicely done sir!

[kanishca]

Hilarious!!! Great Job Rosenberg!!!

[xxMysticFireflyxx]

That was one of the best commercials I have ever seen....what a great president...so much fun!! Very talented!!

[gazerman65]

I'll be a student at Mac starting next year! President Rosenberg is the man!

[oaklanduniv]

So brilliant! LOVE IT!

[1066rodgers]

A talented .... top notch President....gives hilarious performance.

[sarahgizzi]

This is hilarious! I love it! Congrats to whomever had the brilliant ideas for this video and to Prez Rosenberg for having a sense of humor. Very good.

[phloxyloxy]

This was hilarious!

[Zialox]

lol

[karnevil1971]

I loved this, and donated to the annual fund (even though I am not a graduate, and have no affiliation to Mac other than having a friend who works there). Brilliant.

[dmarianetti]

...and THIS is why I will always donate to Macalester. Well done!

[26095]

I love this..I especially love that Kofi Annan's great accomplishment has been so duly noted as well!

Har! Most excellent.

[romuluslupin]

It's this kind of self-aware humor that makes the Mac community awesome.

[leldeilzina]

I love this video! It makes me proud to be at Macalester. I think it takes courage and ability to look at things in a fun manner to do something like this. I am extremely proud to be a part of this community and I want to thank people whose creativity and hard work makes this college one of the most amazing academic environments in the country.

[thultq]

The best and most talented president of any small college in the country! Great video!!

[k888j]

That was great! ..... Makes me even prouder to be a "Mac Dad"!

;-)

[camrade59]

Comic genius.

Beauty at Macalester is so true...

And Groundskeeper Brian and the squirrel clearly have a special bond.

[ukilroy]

That was awful.

Im ashamed to admit to admit I graduated from the College that produced this.
