[quote=Anonymous]Attracts kids who are serious about education. But IMHO, doesn’t always do right by them. Quarter system sucks — high pressure/no time for reflection, schedule is out of sync with other Unis (which limits summer opportunities). Lots of readings in core courses were fragments (e.g. everyone reads Marx but that can mean 10pp of German Ideology). Lets undergrads TA. Lots of mental health issues, not well handled. Profs were often great and very supportive. Grad school admissions worked out well. Summer funding was always available. FWIW, I was educated and/or taught at 3 other Unis of similar size and reputation and am the parent of a very recent UofC grad (PhD-bound STEM major), so that’s my frame of reference. [/quote]
