College Lip Dub Phenomenon: Hebrew University of Jerusalem and Glee’s Somebody to Love

Friday, November 12th, 2010

You know My College Guide is a fan of college admission musicals, remember Delaware and Yale? Well, we’ve got a new one for you — the college lip dub phenomenon! From college campuses here in the US and even overseas, colleges have been churning out their own lip dub videos and putting their own unique spin on musical favorites like you wouldn’t believe (but that is a post for a different day – so stay tuned).

Today, however, we are going to share with you the best college lip dub video we’ve seen so far – the Hebrew University of Jerusalem lip dub of Glee’s Somebody to Love. Remember that the lip dub is created from one long continuous shoot (the characteristic of the lip dub) and involves a lot of students! Which leads us to this friendly reminder: when you get to college, don’t just sit in your dorm room like a bump on a pickle. Go out there and get involved! It’s what college life is all about.

These fun and clever lip dub videos are just another way that colleges show off their unique and silly side and it gives you a great chance to see actual students, faculty, staff, and the campus itself. Watch the Somebody to Love: Glee lip dub by Hebrew University of Jerusalem on YouTube or below.
