Double Dominicans
The Greek playwright Sophocles wrote, "One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life: That word is love."

This special quality of Ohio Dominican probably helps explain why so many who came here drawn by a love of knowledge, ended up finding the kind of love that has inspired the poets through the centuries. Some were college sweethearts. Others met after graduation. The University calls these special couples, "Double Dominicans". MORE....
