[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the general public thinks of the atom bomb during WWII and something vague about Chicago school of economics. The one thing I don't understand is that UChicago purposefully invested in STEM through its Hyde Park labs. I guess the biggest gripe is that in the most transformational era of CS engineering that it lags behind other schools.[/quote] Lots of “elite” schools lag in tech and engineering. Until the 90s or so these were regarded as fields that were beneath them. Mere trades. And they never caught up to a changing world and where the demand is these days. Obviously Chicago, Harvard, Yale etc are great schools. But they are more niche these days since they’re not strong in engineering. Which is fine. There aren’t many colleges that are great in everything.[/quote]
