Why can't LSU make a university commercial that doesn't suck?

Seriously. We have a beautiful campus, beautiful women, prominent and famous alumni, 46 national titles, and we offer great degrees in majors that make great money (engineering, business, architecture, etc). Why are we incapable of making even a halfway respectable promo commercial for the university that really portrays what our great school has to offer?

It blows my fricking mind every time i see it

Are you saying the girl in that commercial isn't beautiful?

Maybe they should get the guy that produced LesMiles.net videos to make LSU.edu commercials.

You can't have beautiful people rep your company/institution these days. It's not PC.

The current commercial has won a bunch of ad awards in the university circles.

And that's what counts. You need to please your colleagues first so they can feel good about themselves.

Yeah, I am a hairdresser because I'd like LSU to make a better promo for the university.

Makes perfect sense.

Have they released a new one? Or is it still the same one with the African American girl with an accent?

It's a joke

Maybe, but If that is their target audience then someone should be fired.
