The president of St. Vincent College has a blog.

It’s really just a series of essays (no comments or outbound links that I saw), so it’s a stretch to call it a blog. Nevertheless, it’s some good writing.

His most recent entry is about George W. Bush being the commencement speaker for Saint Vincent. (It’s dated March 26, and begins “I want the students of Saint Vincent to be the first to know,” but I had heard about it several days earlier.)

Saint Vincent used to be the men’s college that was partnered with Seton Hill College when it was a women’s school, but now they are both co-educational competitors.

  • You're right, that's where Steelers have their summer training camp. I hear that the annual presence of the Steelers had some effect on the design of the latest dorms they built, but I don't recall exactly what.

  • Both schools are excellent institutions. I didn't realize that they were once partners. I think St. Vincent College is where the Pittsburgh Steelers have their training camp, right?
