<p>I'm thinking of doing an overnight (Thursday + Friday) visit sometime in mid-February (accepted EA). Is the social life different in, say, freezing winter, than it is in April (like during the admitted students weekend)? Note: I'm from CA, and people here tend to get more sad/melancholy/antisocial in the winter... </p>
<p>P.S. How would one get to UChicago from the airport?</p>
<p>Sad during a Cali winter? I think they would end up sad all year round at Chicago.</p>
<p>I do sometimes get a bit ticked at the rain in the winter, but that is the first time I have ever heard someone say that we in Los Angeles get seasonal depression. SoCal is not Miami, but you must be speaking of the lousy weather in the Bay Area.</p>
<p>How to get to campus from the aiport:</p>

<p>I am looking out the window now and it is sunny, warm 60+ degrees on top of a hill… where is the lousy weather? :)</p>
<p>You should fly into Midway, the school is only half an hour from the airport.</p>
<p>@artloversplus I’m just sayin’ :)</p>
<p>Gotta love those Chicago winters.</p>
<p>50 degrees and sunny today in Chicago.<br>
Snow possible tomorrow.</p>
<p>Are you kidding me? Thus far, Chicago has the best winter in the entire country! Where else can you see sunny, 50-degree weather?</p>
<p>Quick update on Chicago weather. Over a half foot of snow in the past 24 hours</p>
<p>Haha! Sounds like Chicago. Sunny and 50 one day, buried in snow the next. Makes campus look like a Winter Wonderland. I enjoy the pics–from afar. :)</p>
