Colossal Campaign what a pain

I found this ad campaign very interesting. It makes you think about the ways that the educational institutions are really up to. The idea of a place that conforms all of its students to the same mold is very appalling. All students should be not be the same but be equals. We should all be different and respect one another and all of our differences. Though variety and difference is how we survive. If we were all the same life would not be as fun as it is. If we all did the same things we would all end up in the same jobs and houses and places. We would have no need to even talk to one another because we know that they did the exact same thing as us. No one wants to treated like a number because that is just wrong and very boring. I believe that the differences that we all have compared to one another make us all who we are and should not be changed and i don't care who says that they should. If a place like this actually existed then all of our creative and fun days would be numbered, just like we would be. This ad is just stupid because why would anyone even look into going to a place like this. This university reminds me of the military because of the way that they treat people as numbers. I would never go to a place like this and i think that the ad is stupid and boring.

WOWOWOWOWOW! Could it be that after two years of never agreeing on anything that I finally agree with you? hahah! Well I do agree that although everyone shouldn't be the same, we should all be equal.

However I don't think that is what is being advertised here. The ad isn't for Colossal University, it's for Algoma University. They are trying to show you what happens at other universities, and what doesn't happen at their university. I think this ad is effective because it makes you stop and think.
