duquesne

The Midwest starts west of the the line between Fort Duquesne in Pittsburgh to the southwest corner of New York.

Having CMU, Pitt and Duquesne (and the others) definitely helps with keeping a ton of interesting and smart people around the burgh.

Burnham was an American who fought for the British Empire, while Duquesne was a Boer who fought for the independence of his people.

Edit: I see a way to read your statement as saying that Duquesne has a twisted view of Catholic values.

In 2008, in her final year of law school at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, she met a guy on JDate whom she subsequently married in 2012; they just celebrated their 12th wedding anniversary.

Recruited as a member of the Duquesne Spy Ring, in 1938 Lang gained access to the plans for the bombsight and hand-copied the blueprints, which were then smuggled to Germany via ocean liner.

Curious to see how this plays out in law schools — UPenn and UVA have seen 40%+ bumps in applications (guessing it’s even higher at HYS) while schools like Duquesne or Belmont are struggle busing.

Neither Troy Hill nor Duquesne Heights nor the South Side Slopes nor the entire city of Morgantown are terribly crime-ridden, by either personal experience or any statistics that I know of.

I could have taken one of the last darkroom photography courses offered at La Roche College, but chose to take a digital course since I had extensive experience in that area dating back to saving snaps on floppies at the Duquesne Multicultural Computer Academy in the City of Pittsburgh.

It's ironic that the full name of the university is "Duquesne University of the Holy Spirit".

But it was all more or less for naught, as the Germans had a man inside the Norden company itself who passed them a range of confidential materials related to the sight's design before being caught in the roundup of the infamous "Duquesne spy ring" in 1941.

Duquesne, which is mentioned in the article, has a $40K per year tuition for undergrads (higher for nursing, etc).

Pittsburgh is one of the worst cities in the country for retaining recent college graduates (Pitt, CMU, Duquesne, etc).

Duquesne officials say there are no immediate plans to allow adjunct professors to unionize, despite professors' vote to do so.
