May is Mental Health Awareness Month 💚

We’re reflecting on Team Gumberg’s participation in last month’s Out of the Darkness Walk for su***de prevention. Thanks to our community’s support, we were able to raise $500 for the American Foundation for Su***de Prevention.

If you or someone you know needs support, Duquesne wellbeing resources are here for you—click the link below to learn more.

This Memorial Day weekend, we pause to honor and remember those who have served 🇺🇸,

As we reflect, we’re sharing a look back at Duquesne history through photographs from the Gumberg Library Archives—featuring the Students Army Training Corps (1918) and Duquesne University ROTC (1956 Yearbook), reminders of the many members of our Duquesne community who answered the call to serve.
