Pitt's Prestige

<p>As we said it high school, “If you can’t go to college, go to Pitt.”</p>

<p>I have a master’s from Pitt, but that and $1.25 will get you a small coffee somewhere.</p>

<p>I have never figured out how the university got such a reputation. Very few of the acclaimed faculty teach undergraduate classes. Most of the Pitt’s reputation seems to come from UPMC’s insatisible drive to run every health care facility east of the Mississippi River; or for its athletic programs.</p>

<p>Would some one please enlighten me.</p>
