Massachusetts college to podcast acceptance letters

by Dave Caolo Mar 22nd 2006 at 7:00PM

Fitchburg State College in Fitchburg, Massachusetts (my fair state) has announced that they will send an email to 1,000 future freshmen that contains a link to the school's podcast in iTunes. The podcast features the school's president Dr. Robert Antonucci with the good news, and music by additional faculty. That's pretty cool, of course, when I was in school, email was a big deal.

I can see the excited high school seniors running to their parents now:

"Hey, I got in to college!"
"Great! Did a letter arrive in the mail?"
"No, my iPod told me!"

When I had a brain, getting the email was enough for me to get the message.

Can someone explain to me why I would download a stupid cheesy vid once I've already learned I'm in?
