eh yo I flow in my Polo

If Middlebury College had a business program, I would have applied, and if accepted I would have gone. One may ask why? Well, after you watch this, you will be saying why not?

Now don't you want to go to Middlebury? A simple video created by some students was uploaded on youtube and went viral. The video now has almost one million views and the song can even be purchased on itunes. I saw this video before being accepted to any colleges and it immediatly got me to look into Middlebury. The school is amazing, but unfortunatly does not hae a business program. What is interesting to me is how a simple song made by some students does so much to show the true Middlebury. Anyone that I show the video to seems to like it and the tune is very catchy. Media is powerful. I think that more people should get on the trend of viral videos, due to the powerful effect that they have. This is a simple and inexpensive way for promotion of the college, at least just to get the name out. The song explains the life of a Midd Kid, which describes many aspects of a lot of Vermonters. The song is funny to many who know the area due to how true the versus in the song are. Many of the versus describe me very well. I wear my Polo with pride, have some Dave Matthews T's, and love my McDonalds double cheeseburgers. Stereotypical Nutmegger, I know.
