The school appears again in the episode "Close Encounters of the Murderous Kind," as the location of an altitude chamber. The school was mentioned in the episodes "Head Case" and "Dial M for Mayor" as the employer of the episodes' victims. It is alluded to in "The Fast and the Furriest" as the school of the victim, an evolutionary biology major who was killed while supposedly tracking Bigfoot. In "Time Will Tell," the target of an assassin who may or may not have been from the future was a physics student at Hudson. Most recently, in "PhDead," Richard Castle became a guest college professor at Hudson University to solve a student's gruesome murder.
