[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is unfortunately what happens when students and families chase prestige instead of fit. Chicago is an excellent school for the right kid. It has always been a bit of a niche school because it leans so intellectual, it’s current emphasis on marketing hasn’t changed that.[/quote] True. It is also what happens when grubby colleges juke the rankings and get placed amongst the crème de la crème elites, when they are not even offering a top 30 ethos or outcomes. For years the boosters spin UChicago's graduation surveys and salary outcomes and make every excuse in the book, when the reality is it is clearly just not an elite undergraduate college. The data makes that very clear.[/quote]
