CMU is a solid computer science and engineering school which has found a way to get its name thrown in up there with the likes of MIT and Caltech (can't tell you how many times I've seen CS-oriented folks praise CMU like it's MIT). It's also possible that someone at the studio has a connection to CMU and wanted to include it.
