Lifestyle/Academics at Reed College

<p>Hey guys, </p>

<p>What are the significant differences between Reed College and UChicago? Profound differences academically, socially, city-wise, culinary, etc.....? Anything, you know!? P.S. I love swimming, philosophizing, reading, learning for the heck of it, puzzles, and mountain climbing. </p>

<p>Also, I came across this:
‎"So where did you go to school?"
"The University of Chicago."
"Sweet, me too! What fast food restaurant are you working at?"
"No, no, not the University of Illinois at Chicago. The University of Chicago. I got a degree in Economics there and now I'm making 120k a year on Wall Street."
"Oh. Would you like fries with that?"</p>

<p>Any opinions^? Thanks, guys!</p>
