With this week's episode delving into the world of S&M and domination, they made a trip to Hudson University where the victim had been working on her thesis.
Hudson University is the go-to college in Dick Wolf's corner of the TV Universe. But it's also been mentioned in other shows like 'Without A Trace', 'Tru Calling', 'The Cosby Show', and even 'Degrassi: The Next Generation'. Even though that takes place in Canada, Degrassi student Jimmy Brooks was accepted there. And nothing says he couldn't go to a NYC college just because he's from Canada.....
According to a map once seen in an episode of 'Law & Order', Hudson University in the same general area as Yeshiva University is in the real world. Not too far from Toobworld Central, as a matter of fact.
Hudson University also shows up in DC Comics; but as we know from 'Smallville', there's no real connection between the TV Universe and the Comic Book Universe save for its inspiration.....
'Castle' takes place at the 12th Precinct; 'Law & Order' at the 27th. Maybe someday they'll have to confer with a detective from Lennie Briscoe's old stomping grounds.....

The most recent episode of "Law and Order," called "Brilliant Disguise” used Chelsea University. It was also used in the "C.S.I.: New York" episode called "Time's Up."
Thanks, Andy!
