More than 3,500 incoming Pitt freshmen formed the shape of Pitt's panther mascot on the Petersen Events Center lawn. The Aug. 21 exercise marked an attempt to break the Guinness World Record for “The Largest Animal Image Formed by Humans.” Stay tuned. Moving carts were everywhere on campus during the Aug. 19-23 Arrival Survival as Pitt freshmen moved into their residence halls.
