What did you turn down for UChicago?

.

I turned down nice weather and a normal social life. But at least I gained a husband. LOL

Some good schools. Lots of snob value. Easier classes. Deadly boredom.

Attending Texas Longhorn football games and otherwise enjoying the sporting life for the pleasure of hurling myself buck naked into Bartlett Pool twice a week to satisfy the U of C swimming requirement.

UC Berkeley, UCLA, UCL, Edinburgh and a few others. Honestly, UChicago just ‘felt’ like the right place.
