Talk:Art Institute of Pittsburgh

Oldest and most storied?
Founded in 1921, AIP is the oldest and most storied of The Art Institutes throughout North America...

What about The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts is a museum and art school... It was founded in 1805 and is the oldest art museum and school in the US.

Or even Moore College of Art and Design, founded 1848. Or even

In 1876, the Pennsylvania Museum School of Industrial Art (PaMSIA) was founded as both a museum and an art school. This lede overstates its case, just in Pennsylvania I have cited three examples that are far older, and probably there are others. Someone should revise the lede, but perhaps I am too partisan an advocate of Philadelphia to do it. --DThomsen8 (talk) 20:08, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Teaching with Wikipedia Workshop at CMU (Aug 15)
Editors interested in this article may find the Teaching with Wikipedia Workshop that will take place at CMU on Aug 15 of interest. This workshop is open to general public, and is a joint imitative of CMU and Pitt). There will be another workshop held at Pitt in the Fall as well. It will cover how to include Wikipedia in one's course (WP:SUP) and also how to become a Campus Ambassadors. Pennsylvania has currently only one ambassador (myself) and it would be great if we could recruit at least several more. Ambassadors help course instructors, showing them how Wikipedia works, and interact with students. Many current ambassadors come from the body of students, faculty and university staff; it is a fun adventure, and adds to one resume/CV, to boot :) If it sounds interesting, feel free to ask me any questions, or to come to the workshop. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; talk 20:33, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

Merger proposal
While doing some miscellaneous tasks on Wikipedia, I ran across a dated "mergeto" suggestion on The Art Institute Online to merge that article into this one, Art Institute of Pittsburgh. From what I see, it seems like since The Art Institute Online is part of the Art Institute of Pittsburgh system, that is the reason why it should be merged. What do you think?

 * Agree, and after having a merge notice for 3 years, it's time to WP:Be bold — merge done. -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 17:34, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

Biased
This article contains a lot of irrelevant and biased information about graduation rate in the intro. Is this why this school has a wiki page? Because it's notoriously bad? If not, could someone more familiar with the topic fix this to only add these facts to a "controversy" section or make this information less defining? 12 July 2018 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rexlikescheese (talk • contribs)
