Well, they are tool-users -- they do have human-like hands, and that implies human-like tool dexterity -- though not to the extent that humans are. They never developed metal-working, for instance. They did develop techniques of manipulating trees into shapes and such.
Fixed. It reads: finding an appropriate match for your chick sometimes means squares are set up by parents before fledging -- and in some low density populations, before hatching.
Stanford is probably the closest university -- the actual research center is more remote. Wherever the eastern campus is located, it's actually in a high mountain meadow, not a town; there have to be facilities for the human staff, in case of being snowed-in, among other things.
