>> My PIT experience; I would define it as unbelievable.
I mean, I -- you know, I came from DC, very, very different culture than Pittsburgh.
You know, coming into the university, it was different.
It was a very different feel.
You know, the setup of the city, the setup of the university was different.
But what I came to really value and appreciate was the culture, right,
if you will, within the university.
There was a lot of pride within the university.
There was a lot of resources within the university from, you know, working off-campus
with a job right in Senate Square to living in Sutherland and tutoring the athletes
at the Petersen Events Center, to being an RA, to helping out with band,
and student government, homecoming, I mean, you list it, it was so many fun things to do.
I think now the university has grown a lot.
I think there's so much -- such a varied way of getting involved and getting kind of --
getting it to be the best kind of experience for you.
One of the great things I think the university offers is
that there's no one set way to have your college experience.
There are various kind of swim lanes, if you will, to kind of reaching your --
what you believe to be your ideal PIT experience.
And I think that's amazing.
