Favorite U Chicago Alumni?

<p>U Chicago has had a lot of really cool people go through its doors
Robert Ebert, Milton Friedman, Robert Millikan, Kurt Vonnegut, and even everyone's favorite governor of New Jersey, Jon Corzine among others</p>

<p>Who is your favorite and Why?</p>

<p>1000th post!</p>

<p>tucker max, duh.</p>

<p>Millikan!!!!</p>

<p>I'm assuming Barack Obama doesn't really count...?</p>

<p>alum just from the college or the overall university?</p>

<p>i second tucker max!!</p>

<p>Kurt Vonnegut</p>

<p>tmax is great</p>

<p>i 4th tucker max. my next favorite is a friend who is graduating in 2011.</p>

<p>Alumni is the plural form of alumna/alumnus. Either you want to say, "Who are your favorite alumni?" or, "Who is your favorite alumnus/alumna?"</p>

<p>or you want to say, "Who cares about grammar?"</p>

<p>tucker max and mike nichols are both pretty awesome.</p>

<p>Ughhhh after meeting Tucker Max when he did a book signing at school, I completely lost any love for him.</p>

<p>I like Millikan, because the oil drop experiment is totally sexy (though I think I'll have to do a lab on it this year?)</p>

<p>Milton friendman!!!</p>

<p>I thought Kurt Vonnegut went to Cornell, no?</p>

<p>Millikan Dammit!</p>

<p>Elizabeth Peters (Barbara Mertz) </p>

<p>She's how I found out about U Chicago. :)</p>

Why is that? Clearly he sensationalize some of his stories (or it may just be the fact that hes a sublime writer)</p>

<p>vonnegut did go to u of c. i checked it online. And he mentions U of C in Slaughterhouse V.</p>

<p>Martin Gardner and Carl Sagan. </p>
