[quote=Anonymous]I got my PhD from Chicago, and my sister in law was there at the same time getting her BA. From what I saw teaching undergrads and seeing my SIL, the undergrads are definitely not having a typical college experience. Because there are so many grad students and extremely smart professors etc, they think they need to compete with all of that. They feel dumb- even though they are so smart! And great students! They study very very much more than students at any other school I am aware of (and I’ve taught in other colleges and unis). They appear stressed out and unhappy. I would definitely not recommend my child to go there. It’s a real “life of the mind” thing there- people actually walk around muttering to themselves. It’s fantastic if you really live that way, but I would want my kid to have a more typical college experience. My .02[/quote]
