This is really a wonderful article to read. It has so many of today's biggest starts mentioned and I have so much pride in attending this school because of all the amazing work that is constantly being done by people here, and people who have graduated. I agree with Meghan Hilty 100% when she says, "Aside from the techniques we learned, CMU really prepared us for this hectically creative lifestyle. Anytime I have a hard day I look back and think, if I made it through those days, I can make it through anything." Hilty says what all of us are thinking here. The work load and time constraints here is very heavy and difficult, but, it is preparing us to be able to deal with anything the world will throw at us. I am very thankful for that.
