Georgetown University is a secret Popish hive located in Washington, DC, a swampy little city named for the uncle of an undistinguished King's College dropout. At least the name "Georgetown" is derived from a far more noble George.

Georgetown considers itself elite because it has some pseudo-academic degree programs in such newfangled topics as "Foreign Service", and because it graduated a president. Its claim to have trumped Columbia with the latter, though, will probably not last long.
