How old were your kids? What car did you drive? Bob Carlisle’s “Butterfly Kisses” was the #12 hit. The Spice Girls had 3 top hits in 1997. Basic Cable TV was $29.52 per month.

Tom Corbett signed House Bill 3 into law, making it Act 88 of 2012. It funded nothing. 1997 Governor Tom Ridge “This act opens a new chapter in the way Pennsylvania can fund projects designed to repair and replace our structurally deficient roads and bridges with the cooperation, financial resources and efficiencies of the private sector.” Retiring Rep.

I am delighted that you will be joining us for this event as we explore the implementation of the Affordable Care Act in southwestern Pennsylvania. In the course of the past year, a number of key policy issues have emerged at the state and local levels. We have not yet passed legislation to address pensions and transportation funding, two key issues that will be of critical importance during the legislative session this fall. Also among these is the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, which emerged as the most critical issue for Policy Makers and the Institute of Politics to address. This is primarily because the Act is so complex: it includes the components that one hears about in the media: employer and individual mandates, exemptions to various components of the law, the potential expansion of Medicaid, subsidies for certain categories of individuals, families and businesses, and tax changes, among other things.

  • THOMAS R. KLINE: a Legacy of Education MESSAGE from the DEAN
    THE FALL/WINTER 2017 The Duquesne University School of Law Magazine for Alumni and Friends THOMAS R. KLINE: A Legacy of Education MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN A most grateful thank you for your support Dear fellow alumni, Thank you for the many warm wishes of support over these recent months! It is indeed an honor and a privilege to serve as Duquesne University School of Law’s dean and to work with such an amazing community of legal scholars. As our school year progresses, I share with you the achievements of our law students, a wonderful opportunity for our law school to serve our state judiciary and splendid news about our Duquesne Law faculty. First, our entire Duquesne Law family is very proud of our recent Duquesne Law graduates who achieved a 90.74 percent first-time taker pass rate on the July 2017 Pennsylvania Bar Examination. I know you join with me in congratulating our students! I do note that this passage rate exceeded the Pennsylvania first-time average pass rate by almost 10 points (81.21 percent average). It marked the 11th time in the last 12 years that Duquesne surged ahead of the statewide average. Only three of 10 Pennsylvania-area law schools had first-time pass results above 90 percent. Duquesne finished behind University of Pennsylvania Dean Lally-Green received the Pro Ecclesia et Pontifice Cross in a virtual tie for second place with Penn State Dickinson. medal at a ceremony at St. Paul Cathedral Sept. 24. The cross is Next, as you may already know, we at the Law School are given for distinguished service to the Catholic Church by clergy privileged to serve our state judiciary in a unique and innovative and laypeople, and is the highest honor that can be awarded to the laity by the pope.
