To Accepted Students...

<p>CONGRATULATIONS EVERYONE! You are all wonderful and I'm sure you all deserved it! Since I plan on going to Chicago in the fall, I want to know more about my potential classmates...so...does anyone know of any chatrooms/myspace/livejournal/whatever else chatrooms that may be going on? Or shall we just talk here? I'm particularly interested in favorite hobbies and pastimes of everyone else. ALSO...I've heard that Chicago is the nerd school, like no parties or social life...does anyone know if that's true?</p>

<p>They have parties. They have social lives. Downtown Chicago is 20 minutes away on bus. I wouldn't be suprised if a good number of the people went down every other weekend or so. There's a lot of stuff to do at Uchicago, just like any normal college. It is a huge intramural sports program, which a lot of students participate in (I can't wait to go play broom ball). It's not as socially bad as you think , and don't take the viewpoint of just one person there. Many people see different things at campus.</p>
