For being a Catholic university, Duquesne is a very liberal one. Duquesne does not limit admission to Christians, but Catholicism is obviously the most prominant religion on campus. There are no mandatory church services, but the University is closed on Catholic holidays (All-Saints Day, etc.)
As far as the formation of clubs, a couple of years ago, Duquesne allowed the formation of a Gay Straight Alliance which caused much controvercy among the students and the alumni. On the flip side, earlier this year Duquesne made their radio station WDUQ, which is the local NPR station, return a donation and pull adds from Planned Parenthood, despite the fact that nothing about abortion was stated in the adds that were pulled.
So I think you can scratch Duquesne of the list of most religious school with a chapter of Alpha Phi Omega.
