[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother told DS she will pay 100% of his tuition if he goes to Carnegie Mellon, her Alma mater. But ONLY there. Refusing to understand that it’s a different world since the 60s when she went. Plus, who knows if that is a school DS will even want to apply to? Still a few years out. It’s unbelievably frustrating. [/quote] Engage in existentialist debate! Depending on when she went, "Carnegie Mellon" might not have existed yet, so is it really her alma mater? "In 1967, with support from Paul Mellon, the Carnegie Institute of Technology merged with the Mellon Institute of Industrial Research to become Carnegie Mellon University. In 1973, Carnegie Mellon's coordinate women's college, the Margaret Morrison Carnegie College, merged its academic programs with the rest of the university." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnegie_Mellon_University[/quote]
