Unfair advantage
I have been following this contest because I was hoping SUNY Delhi would make the finals, so I am disappointed and perplexed to find that several of the finalists are videos that had been posted on YouTube months before the contest was announced, have little or nothing to do with the theme and are obviously promotional pieces that already existed and were just plugged in to get them extra exposure.
BIOLA
Biola has over 4,000 students who are an amazing community dedicated to the love of Christ and the alumni and parents viewed the video too. Sorry you're jealous of our fan club and that our video is amazing!!
Biola
Seems kinda fishy that s school as small as Biola can get over 300,000 views. I've never understood the concept of using "viewing windows"... too easily manipulated.
