[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is hardly dangerous to go from Hyde Park to the loop, Near North, Wicker Park, Lincoln Park, etc. If you say otherwise, you are simply parroting what you *think* you know from inside some right wing bubble that thinks Chicago is some dangerous hell scape.

Our niece is there and she is having a great time. (Went to a private outside Philadelphia). She reports some classes are difficult, but manageable. Only dislike is the pace of the quarter system.[/quote]

Over half the freshman and sophomores live in Woodlawn. No undergrads are routinely hanging out in Wicker Park and Lincoln Park. But it’s interesting you’re calling people Fox News MAGA nuts or whatever when you’re tripping over yourself to namedrop white yuppy neighborhoods. Why don’t you tell us how amazing Southside neighborhoods are? Woodlawn, Washington Park, Englewood.[/quote]

Students don't really go to the neighboring southside neighborhoods.
The most dangerous thing a student would likely do is go up to 53rd at midnight to get some Harold's.

The insinuation was that students would be in danger going to "Chicago" - the neighborhoods listed are where they would go on a Saturday afternoon.

And yes, if you think the UChicago is in some sort of super dangerous place, then you are a MAGA nut that is drinking the koolaid.  I'm sure you would have the same issues with students going to Johns Hopkins, Tufts, UPenn, etc. etc.  Give it a rest.[/quote]
