BREVARD COUNTY • MELBOURNE, FLORIDA – Blowing up the Hollywood adage that sequels rarely match the original, the students, scholarship, and sunshine at Florida Tech are returning for a fun and exciting new episode of “The College Tour,” the award-winning TV series on Amazon Prime Video.

While the episode doesn’t drop on Amazon until Feb. 27, the Florida Tech community is invited to see it sooner with an exclusive, early-access watch party. At noon on Thursday, Nov. 30, join the watch party virtually on the FloridaTechOfficial YouTube channel.

Details regarding an in-person campus event to celebrate the release on Amazon will be announced in the coming months.

The university’s first episode was released in December 2020 and is available to view on Amazon or YouTube.

In the university’s latest episode, 10 amazing students highlight what’s new on campus, such as the esports center and health sciences building, while reminding viewers of what has not changed: the university’s beautiful location, welcoming community, inspiring faculty, innovative culture, and amazing, hands-on academic programs.

The students featured are: graduate student Lauren-Ann Graham ’20; Darin Hiraldo; graduate student Nashaita Patrawalla ’19 ’21 M.S.; Marcello Mattei ‘22; Zach Miller; Ceana Palacio; Josianne Keenan; Carter Batt; Jared McColpin; and Emma Conti (pictured above).

Throughout the episode, each student shares their unique Florida Tech experience, providing viewers with an authentic look into life at Florida Tech.

Kathryn Hatfield, senior marketing strategist, and project manager who led the production from the Florida Tech side, noted that each student got to write their own script and bring the episode to life through a collaborative process with both the university marketing team and “The College Tour” producers.

“Telling Florida Tech’s story from the perspective of our students—and sharing it on a platform as large as Amazon Prime Video—is what makes ‘The College Tour’ so impactful,” Hatfield said.

“Their stories will help prospective students envision their future at Florida Tech and allow new audiences around the world to discover the great university that is Florida Tech.”

“The College Tour” was created by Alex Boylan, Lisa Hennessy, and Burton Roberts, a team of successful entrepreneurs in the TV, social media, and technology space known for pursuing their passion for adventure and their love of storytelling.

Each episode, which Boylan hosts, tells the story of what life is truly like on college campuses across the country and around the world – from academics, housing, sports, career preparation, campus life, location, and much, much more.
