Looking for the 2018 selection? Check it out!

Top 2014 Higher Ed Holidays Video CardsI love holidays cards. So, every year since 2010, I watch lots of them to create a nice little collection for everybody’s viewing pleasure (2010 collection, 2011 collection, 2012 collection and 2013 collection.)

This year again, I asked the readers of my weekly newsletter if they could send links to their 2014 holidays cards. I also got some suggestions via Twitter.

So, here’s the selection of my favorites 2014 holidays videos (in no specific order).

If you have a holiday card or have seen a cool one that isn’t listed below, post a comment so we can all watch it – and get inspired, next year, when it’s time to come up with an idea for the 2015 Holiday Video :-)

My 2013 collection got more than 5,000 views – the bulk in December/January 2013 AND in August/September 2013.

Happy Holidays to you and your loved ones!

    Kishwaukee College is celebrating all that we can do together with our holiday ecard.

  3. Nice! This year, Jamestown Community College wanted to make sure we got lots of student faces in it and tied it into something that our Senate was already doing: Free Hugs! We also got some great music from our jazz ensemble: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-I3g2g8Dtsw
