Seattle University is a private Jesuit university in Seattle, Washington. SU is the largest independent university in the Northwest US, with over 7,500 students enrolled in undergraduate and graduate programs within eight schools. In 1891, Adrian Sweere, S. J. took over a small parish near downtown Seattle at Madison. At first, the school was named after the surrounding Immaculate Conception parish and did not offer higher education. In 1898, the school was named Seattle College after both the city and Chief Seattle, it granted its first bachelor's degrees 11 years later; the school served as both a high school and college. From 1919 to 1931, the college moved to Interlaken Blvd, but in 1931 it returned to First Hill permanently. In 1931, Seattle College created a "night school" for women, though admitting women was controversial at the time. In 1948, Seattle College changed its name to Seattle University, under Father Albert A. Lemieux, S. J. In 1993, the Seattle University School of Law was established through purchase of the Law School from the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, the School of Law moved to the Seattle campus in 1999.

In 2009, SU completed its largest capital campaign, raising $169 million. This led to investment in the scholarship fund, academic programs and professorships, a fitness complex, an arts center, the $56 million Lemieux Library and McGoldrick Learning Commons, completed in fall 2010. Seattle University has a 50-acre campus in the city's First Hill neighborhood, east of downtown Seattle; the SU campus has been recognized by the city of Seattle and EPA for its commitment to sustainability through pesticide-free grounds, a food waste compost facility and energy conservation program.

Marchese Ferdinando Cospi was a Bolognese nobleman who acquired a large collection of natural curiosities, donated for the use of scholars to the city of Bologna in 1657. Ferdinando Cospi was born in Bologna in son of Constance de'Medici and Vincenzo Cospi, his father belonged to an ancient Bolognese family. In December 1601, Vincenzo Cospi was involved in a fight. Sentenced to death, he fled to Florence, he was befriended by the future Grand Duke Ferdinando I. In August 1604 Vincenzo Cospi married a great-granddaughter of Cardinal Alessandro Ottaviano de' Medici, who the next year was Pope Leo XI before dying in office. Vincenzo Cospi was pardoned, in 1606 was in Bologna, where Ferdinando Cospi was born. In 1610 Vincenzo was involved in another fight, this time bloodless, but was again forced to flee to Florence. Here, at the age of eight, Ferdinando Cospi became a page of Cosimo II de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany. In 1616 he joined the Order of the Knights of St. Stephen, but so he would not have to serve on a galley he was made a page of the grand master, the Grand Duke, who brought him up with his children.

When Cosimo II died in 1621, Ferdinando II promoted Cospi to a page of the black livery, took him to live in the Palazzo Vecchio. Cospi’s father died in Bologna in 1624, he inherited the family property and position, he became the representative of the Grand Duke Ferdinando II in Bologna. This involved formal diplomatic services and attendance at ceremonies, he mediated between the Bolognese and Tuscan authorities, promoted trade and the interests of Florence in Bologna. He helped the Medicis to obtain the services of Bolognese artists. In 1637 Cospi married Smeralda di Annibale Banzi, they had just one daughter, although Cospi was said to have had a child in Florence whom the Granduchess Vittoria della Rovere accepted as one of her court ladies. As the value of his services increased, the Grand Duke increased Cospi’s salary and in 1641 made him bailiff of Arezzo within the Order of St. Stephen. In 1643 Cospi escorted the new Cardinal Giancarlo de' Medici to Rome to receive his cap. In 1646 he undertook a mission to Milan to pay respects on behalf of the Grand Duke to the new governor, Bernardino Fernández de Velasco, 6th Duke of Frías.

Two years he was given the hereditary title of Marquis of Petriolo. On 9 May 1650 he became a senator of Bologna; the next year he made another trip for the Cardinal Giancarlo de' Medici to pay his respects to Mariana of Austria, the new Queen of Spain. In 1664, 1665 and 1672 he was Gonfaloniere of Bologna. In 1673 Cospi continued to take part in public life, he was buried in San Petronio in the family chapel. On 28 June 1660 Cospi donated his museum to the Senate, it seems that Tatto had compiled a short printed catalog of the collection. In 1667 Cospi printed, at his expense, a full description of the ‘’Museo Cospiano’’ in five volumes; the first two described the natural history specimens and the last three covered the archaeological objects. A picture of the "Cabinet of Curiosities" has been preserved, it includes natural specimens as well as some man-made specimens of fictitious animals such as a winged fish and a Hippocampus, half horse and half fish. In the picture, the bust of Dante Alighieri forms the centerpiece of the collection.

Below and to its right is the dwarf Sebastiano Biavati, a living member of his collection, Cospi himself stands to the right. The collection was combined with a collection made by Ulisse Aldrovandi. In 1743 the Academy of Sciences of Bologna Institute obtained the donation of this collection, the Naturalia Museum.

Big Sir is a fictional DC Comics character. He first appeared in The Flash #338. Big Sir made his live appearance on the fourth season of The Flash played by Bill Goldberg; this version is an ally to Barry Allen while he is in prison. Born Dufus P. Ratchett, he had a malformed brain gland that caused him to grow to incredible proportions but left him mentally handicapped, he was abducted from his Central City Breedmore Mental Hospital home by the Rogues who equipped him with a high-tech suit of armor created by the Monitor. This suit was armored, could fly, included a powerful energy flail. However, it made him susceptible to telepathic suggestion. Big Sir was told that the Flash had just beaten upon the Rogues Gallery and to make matters worse, he had hurt a mouse. Enraged, Big Sir ambushed the Flash, at the time on trial in Central City for the murder of Professor Zoom; the dim-witted Sir managed to strike the Flash in the head with his energy flail causing the hero horrific facial injuries. With the last of his strength, Flash managed to run to Gorilla City, where his injuries were healed by Solovar and a simian medical team.

Returning to Central City, the Flash managed to subdue Big Sir and took him back to Gorilla City where their super-science corrected his mental deficiencies. After his treatment, Ratchet's IQ was near genius level and he became a respected member of society; when he returned as a part of the Injustice League, his intelligence had returned to its prior low levels. No explanation for this has been given; the team, led by Major Disaster, survived due to bizarre luck that saved their lives and their freedom, but their dignity. Big Sir and his friends attempt to learn the French language but this ends badly because the Justice League Europe ended up being in the same class. A fight broke out; this involves Big Sir meeting Wally West. Big Sir and Major Disaster by themselves broke the bank at the unofficial Club Justice League, quite to much chaos and confusion; this confusion was further enhanced by the Club having been built on a sentient island, Kooey Kooey Kooey, who chose the time of the incident to go traveling.

The Injustice League once became Justice League Antarctica. There, Big Sir encountered flesh-eating penguins and had his life saved by the canine Green Lantern, G'nort; the entire Antarctica base was destroyed in a battle with the flesh-eating penguins. Though the Justice League of America had to intervene, G'nort did save the lives of his teammates. Around this time, Big Sir and the Injustice League participated in an attempt to con a cult leader out of his fortune. After the fiasco with the Justice League Antarctica, he was fired by Maxwell Lord with full benefits and a month's pay, along with all his friends; this measure of respect prompted a visit to Max in Justice League Of America #53, the first part of the Breakdowns crossover. Max was in the hospital after a brutal assassination attempt. There, Big Sir accidentally injured four police officers when he wanted to remove their guns. This, combined with a panicking nurse, caused the room to be surrounded by police, who believe Max to be in danger.

The Martian Manhunter uses his invisibility to spy on the group. He decided to leave them there. Big Sir joined the Suicide Squad in return for a pardon, along with most of his Injustice League friends, they are sent in to deal with a terroristic/hostage situation on a small island owned by the country of Iceland. The problems stemmed from a mad scientist becoming obsessed with an evolutionary advanced life form. Big Sir encounters a genetically engineered biological form in shape of a small child; when he picks it up, thinking it is a real child, it explodes in his arms. He is killed instantly. However, since other members of the team who were thought to have been killed were shown to have survived, it is still within possibility that Big Sir did as well, though he has not as yet made any further appearances. Although Big Sir's strength levels would not be considered superhuman, he did possess raw physical power greater than that of a normal human being, he has an electronic flail that emits spikes of pure energy or a steady stream of energy able to propel Ratchett through the air.

Ratchett's helmet emits "telepathic noise". A version of Big Sir appears in The Flash, played by Bill Goldberg, he is a man of normal intelligence in Iron Heights Prison, indebted to Henry Allen, saves Barry from an attack by several other inmates. This version's real name is David P. Ratchett.
