Top 4 Penn videos that will give you the chills: #2

So far, my #4 and #3 picks for my "Penn videos that will give you the chills" have been beautifully made films combining stylized photography, use of music and special effects.

Today I bring you an engaging video from one of our alumni jam packed with emotion and truth.

Click here for my #2 pick.



In my last post about performance artist Carlos Andrés Gómez (C'04), I was pretty much wowed by this alum's passion for expression.

Well he's done it again.

Carlos just posted a video of a recent performance talking about his experiences as a public school teacher in NYC and his adolescent students doing the "distinctly beautiful" exercise.

I'll tell you this, Carlos' words are well-crafted, poignant and shockingly truthful. I definitely get chills listening to what he has to say.

And so will you.

Listen to this and tell me you're not effected...

Check back tomorrow for my #1 pick!
