Nice Atmosphere...If You Can Get There
Pittsburgh has a lot of great things to do, especially if you go down to Oakland, Southside, or The Waterfront. The only major problem is getting there, which I guess is more of a transportation concern, but that kind of affects whether or not you can actually enjoy the atmosphere. Right by the Consol, which is where the Pens play and it also hosts a lot of concerts. The Cultural District is a 20 minute walk downtown, and there are always great shows down there. Just don't go to the corner of 5th and Stevenson - there's a bar there, and the people that frequent it are often rude to Duquesne students, particularly if you're a girl. While Duquesne itself doesn't feel like you're in a city, remember that as soon as you step off campus, it IS the city! Be smart and stand your ground.
