Carnegie Melon is the associated agricultural school. The first project is a self-aware cantaloupe harvester.

Don't know if it's still true, but the default dictionary used in MS Word doesn't know "Carnegie" -- it suggests "Carnage" as a replacement. As a CMU grad, it is the first word after my own name that I add to the dictionary when I get a new PC.
