Northwestern YouTube Offers a Window to University Life

Northwestern YouTube

If you were among the millions of viewers who visited YouTube.com last month, you may have noticed that Northwestern University has its own channel.  Last February, Northwestern University Information Technology (NUIT) Research & Academic Technologies and University Relations teamed up to launch Northwestern YouTube, an Institutional Channel on the popular YouTube video sharing Web site.

Unlike YouTube.com where anyone can contribute an interesting video, contributors to Northwestern YouTube are representatives of University schools and groups who have institutional videos to share. Many of the 100 plus videos currently presented on Northwestern YouTube have been produced by NUIT's Northwestern University Advanced Media Production Services (NUAMPS).

Take a Peek

Did you know that before The Rock, there was The Tree?  You can learn more by watching Northwestern: Moments In Time, a video documentary that offers interesting facts about the 150-year history of the University.  Or check out Northwestern University: Good Thinking, a fun commercial that has already been seen by over 9,000 viewers. You can also listen to performances by the NU Symphonic Orchestra or watch Mozart’s The Magic Flute.  Researchers and sports fans alike may enjoy a lecture on the Physics of Baseball
