<p>2)The University of Chicago has a venerable tradition of seminar-based learning, in which students and professors gather around the classroom table to discuss ideas. Less venerable, but no less valuable, is our tradition of conversation around another tablethe dinner table. Indeed, on any given night you will find members of our student community breaking bread together, discussing everything from The Symposium to The Simpsons. We in the admissions office would argue that a community can be defined by its tableby its shape, by who finds a seat there, by what transpires there, by what is inspired there. Tell us about your table.</p>
<p>3)In Jorge Luis Borgess Labyrinths, he writes a parable entitled Borges y yo, which translates as Borges and I. In it, Borges writes about the other one, his counterpart, who shares his preference for hourglasses, maps, eighteenth century typography, the taste of coffee, and the prose of Stevenson, but is not the same as he. The other one is the famous author; the other one is the one things happen to. He concludes this parable with the line I do not know which of us has written this page. Write a page. Who has written it?
