    Great information -- Thanks for posting. Stephen Colbert is a class act and is a great communicator. I wasn't stuffed into lockers, but I was a dork! :) Lisa Pelto

    I wonder if he had his crew from the TV show come to film this. That would explain why it's shot so professionally.

    Kudos for the Spanish!

    The production design of this announcement is really smart. I love that the three representatives of the organizations are in school desks. Brilliant!
