University of Chicago Top Questions

What's the most frustrating thing about University of Chicago?

Priya

The disturbingly large douchebag population.

William

This school provides an education that can be far too impractical at times, which it takes pride in. People here are so obsessed with core curriculum and reading entire canons that they forget to look out the window sometimes and appreciate what is going on and what is important in the world today.

Most people at the university, students as well as professors, are extremely pompous and pretentious. It's just frustrating at times because I don't feel that smart and sometimes feel as if I don't deserve to be at such a prestigious institution. Also, the lack of diversity in terms of social activities and things to do around campus and majors and extra-curricular activities makes me feel a little closeted in sometimes.

Students tend to get stuck in Hyde Park and not make good use of resources in downtown Chicago.

Daniel

The manner in which many of the students act among others; they are quick to judge someone harshly.
