There\u2019s a tradition among students who perform as Montclair State University\u2019s mascot, Rocky the Red Hawk: it\u2019s a secret until they cross the graduation stage wearing bright yellow talons to make the \u201cbig reveal.\u201d But for one member of Team Rocky that unveiling will be happening on multiple streaming platforms when he unmasks on the television series The College Tour<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the coolest kind of reveal for Rocky that you could do,\u201d says Sean Risch \u201922, who graduated in January with a degree in Theatre Studies. He represents Montclair along with 18 other students and alumni in the University\u2019s hour-long episode that begins running in April on Prime Video<\/a>, IMDbTV and additional channels. \u201cBeing Rocky was a personal thing and sharing that with America is just \u2026 awesome<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ahead of the national rollout, Montclair is offering a sneak peek of the program \u2013 and Rocky \u2013 introducing the cast and taking viewers behind the making of The College Tour<\/em> at a premiere on Thursday, March 24. The watch party<\/a> will include a reception beginning at 6 p.m. in the lobby of the School of Communication and Media and an in-person and live-streamed program (on the University\u2019s YouTube channel<\/a>) at 7 p.m. in the School of Communication and Media\u2019s Presentation Hall.<\/p>\n
