For the past seven years, members of the Carnegie Mellon University community have created new arrangements of "Auld Lang Syne" to honor the school's Scottish roots. Erik Pintar, who graduated in 2016 with a bachelor's degree in electrical and computer engineering and an additional major in human-computer interaction, shared the joy of American Sign Language (ASL) through his Student College (StuCo) course called "Sign Language Through Pop Music." First taught in the spring of 2014, the course continues to be offered each semester.
