[quote=Anonymous]Our son graduated from Pitt last year, business major, honors college student who has 5 good friends also business majors, all happily employed (3 stayed in Pittsburgh, the other 2 are in their home states, of the 3, one works in an office, one is fully remote, and one is hybrid).

The boys all got a great education, enjoyed sports (football more during the Kenny Pickett era, now it's just frustrating), basketball has been up and down, but soccer and volleyball teams are fantastic.  There are shuttles for the the students to Acrisure Stadium, but it's never full like for the Steelers games.  But the Oakland Zoo (the student section) is always packed, and crazy-fun - we used to see our student on TV at the games.  You don't have to go Greek, because you are in a city with tons of things to do, but it's there if you want it.  Bars, restaurants, museums, theaters, pro sports (Steelers, Penguins, Pirates) are all there, and easily accessible and affordable for students.  The busses are also free for students (mine used them to get to their internship).

In other words, out honors college Pitt kid got a great education, made good friends, is fully employed and supporting himself, and is happy.  And really, that's what we want for him.[/quote]
