Questions for Current Students

<p>University of Chicago is currently my junior D's first choice. If anyone has any experience with the following, she would love to hear your input:
1. Crew (rowing) team. D realizes this is a club sport but would like to hear any information you might have. She will be contacting the coaches a little later in the spring.
2. Geosciences Department. Her interests lie in the area of geochemistry. Any experiences with the department? Research opportunities for undergraduates?
3. How do the quieter students do with the U Chicago method of teaching? Are the professors good about giving everyone an opportunity to express an opinion? She's quiet in the classroom and I'm concerned that she will be overwhelmed in the humanities/social sciences courses.
We plan to visit in late May or early June. Thanks for any information you can provide.</p>
