Listen
now, and if you like, leave a comment below!This classic rap tune was one of several commercials aired on Albuquerque radio stations in 1991 and 1992 to increase enrollment at Tech. It was quite controversial among students at the time. I happen to have one of the very few recordings because I was editor of Paydirt. The fidelity isn't great, but it's good enough for you to get the gist of the thing.

| This has to be one of the most ludicrous recruitment efforts conceivable…The PR version of impedance mismatch. I distinctly remember laughing uncontrollably after first hearing it. | ||

| Wow. As much as I dislike rap, I dislike this even more. I just hope my alumni contributions didn't pay for it. | ||
