Andy Warhol's Alma Mater

Did you all know Andy Warhol is from Pittsburgh?  And he went to Carnegie Mellon.  Most people think Carnegie Mellon is a bunch of engineering and computer geeks -- well, you're right.  But they also have an amazing theater arts department and art department.  Austin's comments…"Pitt had no good-looking girls, but I didn't even SEE any girls at Carnegie Mellon!"  Odds are not in the male's favor there.  We had some pretty funny, kinda geeky tour guides, but they definitely had a superiority complex.  Whereas the guide at PITT seemed like he just didn't want to be there, these guys definitely wanted to be there, but their attitude was pretty much, "we go here and you don't. Ha-ha."  Fine.  We're not jealous of your school colors (tartan) and your mascot  (the vicious Scottie dog.)  We don't even care that one of your majors is Bag-Pipes.  Really funny side note -- Austin saw Geoffrey Burns (all of you from HDS) looking at Carnegie Mellon.  But Geoffrey was done and off to look at MIT and Harvard.  Bottom line -- not for Austin, but good to see.
