Córdoba's Jesuit university is the oldest in Argentina, and the 1918 Reforma Universitaria was launched from its law faculty, which is why the Lawyer and Judge benches are still thick five generations later. The Militar line belongs to the nineteenth-century wars of the interior and the Escuela de Aviación, while the Player and Basket counts come from the provincial sports academies that feed Buenos Aires.
