College Admissions via YouTube

The New York Times is reporting that "for the first time this year, Tufts University in Medford, Mass., invited aspiring students to submit short YouTube videos to supplement their applications. About 1,000 of the 15,000 applicants did so, and their videos range from slick to, well, earnest." You can see them here. (And sorry about YouTube being blocked--but check it out at home.)
