The traffic will probably be much heavier than normal around the university during this time as the royal princess will be attending and some roads likely blocked off near the CMU Convention Center.

My mother has a Baccalaureate in Mathematics and I could barely pass Algebra II in a US High School. Lost the Maths gene somehow...

i am not disputing your mother intelligence, work ethic, etc but what has she contributed to the betterment of mankind with her math degree? the real question at the end of a mans life is not what he did but what he helped/taught someone else to do/acomplish

Accomplished much of nothing and hardly ever worked. Instead relying on alliances with men, breeding and finally the courts for sustenance and wealth accumulation. Just like the Issaan BG Long Scam, but with an air of suburban respectability. Nothing to be proud of.
