[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here...this thread is starting to depress me, but we will visit the school and see for ourselves.[/quote] Most people I know were happy there. Ignore Ms. or Mr. Ivy. My husband went to a crap school and is doing better than my Ivy doctor sister. :) I was happy at Pitt. Its in the city but doesn't fully feel like the city. Its diverse enough for everyone to find something they like. Make sure to go to the O for french fries.[/quote] I went to an Ivy and one of my kids went to Pitt. I kind of envied that so much was available in Oakland (and Pittsburgh) in comparison. Yes, there are more working and middle-class kids and they aren't coddled like they are at some Ivies and LACs. They have to take initiative to make sure they get the courses they want, and deal with landlords, and lots of the kids have part-time jobs. I think the kids leave knowing how to take care of themselves. [/quote]
