The Life In the southwestern corner of Pennsylvania, two rivers cut down through the mountains and meet to form a third. Four miles away from the point where these two rivers join, there is a university which has, as one of its major claims to fame, a forty-two story Gothic skyscraper called the Cathedral of Learning. This is the University of Pittsburgh. Around this building revolves the life of the University. A student’s education begins at registration in its Commons Room, and ends at Commencement on its lawn.

The University will become one gigantic brain. University expansion and the burgeoning field of space research have brought with them greater emphasis on the sciences and graduate work in those sciences.
