Who in the world do they get to do these commercials?
Don't get me wrong, I think Louisiana Tech is a great University, and I've loved my 8.5 years here. At some point, though, you'd think someone up top who approved this spot would have said, "Maybe we should let some younger people watch this and see what they think...". They probably would've told the university to save the money they spent on this, however little it was, and invest it in improving campus life. Instead, they approved this commercial that may have had some kind of appeal in the late 90's, if then.
I'm not asking for a funny budweiser-esque commercial, or a sappy LATech prestige commercial. I just think that someone should've realized that this commercial won't make kids any more interested in looking into tech. It will, however, make them feel like they're attending a showing of stomp.
I'd like to see a serious commercial, with no gimmicky dancing. Showing students at events enjoying themselves, or students researching, highlighting the engineering facilities. Anywho, just figured I'd get that off my chest.
