It's nursing department is renowned in our area. Stemming from the catholic tradition of tending to the sick, it has a long tradition of training the most prepared and knowledgable nurses in the region.

Kellsie

This school is unfortunately best known for attracting well off, upper middle class to high class people, as well as those who are only making it through on grants and loans. There is a lot of diversity, but in such a lot of disparity between the girls wearing the UGG boots and the girls who are coming from India to study and kids like me, who have little to no money to afford the expensive things most of them wear and feel a little left out.

I would say our school is best known for the fact that it is still so strict. The rules at Duquesne are regularly broken and laughed at by everyone whether they go to the school or not. Many of the rules and regulations that we have at the school are from when the school first opened and although administration knows the rules are broken and alot of them don't fit in with present day college experiences, they do not change them.
