[quote=Anonymous]I attended grad school at Pitt in late 1990's.  I LOVED Pitt and loved living in Pittsburgh (except the weather  . . . it's fairly miserable Nov.-April).

I never lived in the dorms so can't speak to whether or not they are "gross." But, I spend a lot of time in Oakland and lived in Shadyside, which is adorable.  It's a great urban school w/o being too big.

There is a lot -a LOT- to do in Pittsburgh.  Great neighborhoods, each with their own character, bars, etc. Shadyside and Squirrel Hill= more of a "St. Elmos" pub feel
Oakland = dance clubs and gritty bars
Strip District = the big dance clubs
South Side = more of your low key, local scene. Super fun.

At least that is what it was when I lived there.  Plus "the Point" has lots of fun festivals.  There are great art museums, Schenley Park, plus football/baseball/hockey teams right in downtown.

It's actually amazing I did as well as I did there considering how much other stuff I was doing.

I can't say enough good things about the town and the school.[/quote]
