Northwestern University: Good Thinking

[fivequotes]

good thinking bro

[grunder20]

we'll know about it.

[thegreeensky]

nice video ads.. really calls attention and interests..

[Metacognition2015]

Misconception: Northwestern is a bunch of nerds in the big 10.

Reality: Northwestern is a bunch of Big 10 jocks who happen to be smart.

[jschaefer08]

As a Northwestern student, that made my head hurt.

[dabearzrock]

I do not talk like this.

[UnrivaledShogun]

This was terrible ad. There so called "smart lines" are pretty simple. Also acceleration is meter per second per second

[huntjordan]

.............. wow.

[FinalBurst19]

Just so you all know, none of us actually talk like this...

[EyeBeeWeazy]

fuck this stupid ad

[jsymons1985]

Socrates is there, Socrates heads it in! Socrates has scored! The Greeks are going mad, the Greeks are going mad. Socrates scores, got a beautiful cross from Archimedes. The Germans are disputing it.Hegel is arguing that the reality is merely an a priori adjunct of non-naturalistic ethics,Kant via the categorical imperative is holding that ontologically it exists only in the imagination, and Marx is claiming it was offside. But Confucius has answered them with the final whistle! It's all over!

[jsymons1985]

obvious fact 1... obvious fact 2... obvious fact 3... humph

[Mujjahid786]

lol, wow that's some football team!

[aomibae]

this makes me so happy.

[AmyNU]

As an NU engineering student, I'm embarrassed by this ads.... It's so bad....

By the way, referring to 0:09 the unit of acceleration is not meter per second, it's meter per second per second....

[andre3k1]

this is the worst advertisement I have ever seen

[thenewera146]

Andre...clearly you have never been to Miami where the ad campaigns are absolutely atrocious.

[andre3k1]

Well at least we have ad campaigns unlike Jersey brah

[andrewkday]

wow this is terrible. no wonder we cant recruit anyone good.

[liszt85]

I can't believe I'm going to grad school here..it disgusts me to listen to "accelerate at 3.2 m/s" :|

[kristenkrofchik]

man this is lame

[mc293]

wow.

and i've already applied here... this scares me.

[wfch17]

As they said at Vanderbilt when the beat Auburn-The Geeks shall inherit the turf!

[NUCat40]

Nice to see Paul B. and Matt S. make a nice old school commercial.

Chilly

[orangeman204]

if nu had any dignity, they would take this down immediately and burn every copy in the archives

[McCainIsOld]

Orangeman do you have a life? All you do is comment on Northwestern videos?

[orangeman204]

well i go to northwestern, so of course most people assume i dont have a life. videos like this dont help

[wfch17]

I was at NU during the 33 game losing streak. i love this stuff. Orangeman lighten up. Remember, what does an NU grad have that a Mich U grad does not? 2008 bowl tickets.

[cathy652]

HAHAHAHAHAHA. this is so funny :))) and yes, accelleration is m/s^2...not m/s

[norman8823]

The kids at Northwestern may be nerdy, but no one actually talks like that. Parents: is this what you really want your kids to sound like at a football game?

[celticgirl87]

Gotta love Nerdwestern.

[Boomdog14]

This is pretty brilliant.

[cma148]

and if you really go to northwestern you know that acceleration is in m/s ^2, not m/s...

[5k0ld]

lolz

[rambo117]

haha that's pretty funny

[madharmonies]

unless you're me! I'm scientifically challenged :(

[rockergrl86]

hahaha, this is priceless. So using the phrase 'carpe diem' makes you smarter eh?

[Citygirl3487]

This had to have been made back in the days of the Rose Bowl - anyone who watched a game this year knows better.

That aside, this video is hysterical. And it's not that exaggerated...I've known a few people to talk like that - not so much on South campus, but still - entertaining if nothing else!

[Taranis501]

Most of us are not as nerdy as shown here. We're much worse.

[orangeman204]

holy shit im embarrassed for everyone who has any affiliation with northwestern

[daveibukun]

hillarious.

[paternagnstuser]

We're not that good at football, but we sure are smart!

[coolbeans278]

wtf ive never heard a jock talk like that, these are all actors i doubt they are real s tudents. just another con by universities to get parents to send their unsuspecting kids to be educated to be more stupid then they were before they left highschool. in a poll of grades, classes, difficulty lvl US colleges & universities ranked among the least challenging, and least successful graduates in the world after graduation. reason for this is that they dumb down the reqs to pass the course.

[zoogies]

yeah they're all actors.......in other words, it's a commercial. Er...is that surprising?

I thought it was a pretty funny commercial.

[pmesro]

Perhaps, but they'll be able to post on Youtube with correct spelling and punctuation.

[Jon08CO]

Least successful graduates in the world? Show me where you got that from. If US Colleges are the worst in the world then why do wealthy families from other countries send their kids to get educated at a U.S. college or high school?

[AlvinHDavernport]

That's very funny, because last time I checked, US schools occupied more than half of the top 100 spots of any world university rankings, whether made by a Chinese university or a British publication.

[pigmitten]

This is actually true. People at NU actually talk like this on a day to day basis. It's kind of sad.

[mnmgirl88]

do you GO to NU? I've never heard anyone talk like this. Except maybe on North Campus. This ad was actually made in 1995 or so, but this is no where near what we say "on a day to day basis."
