Duquesne takes over the building across from the Coop (old Vocational Rehab Center) to build the new med. school.  Interesting in that they have that large parking area on Forbes across from the garage.  Article from the PG:

Superl cool that Duquesne is taking over Forbes like this. Really starting to expand out from a footprint standpoint. And a new medical school is obviously a huge deal.

That parking lot next to Red Ring is becoming a new dorm, last I checked.

Sounds like that piece of Forbes will be the place to be soon.   New dorm, new med school, and some new hoop court.   Anyone want to go in on another bar/restaurant on Forbes?   I got some start up cash.

Great idea. You’d be facing the same problem the Red Ring has in keeping staff employed on non game nights at the Coop or PPG.

There aren’t a lot of Osteopathic schools that have the backing of a full research university that has every program already like Duquesne has already- pharmacy, nursing, health science, NP, etc.

Duquesne must shoot for a top 5 DO ranking and perhaps the best after Michigan State.  See DO current rankings-
