<p>Cue7, if it turns out to be an approximately 15% overall increase for Chicago this year, I’m not sure I’d call that much of a stall, especially when many peer institutions are getting either decreases or low single-digit increases. I think the term “peers” may be hiding some basic differences that either can’t or won’t be changed (e.g. Chicago’s challenging weather, its lack of Ivy League affiliation, and its non-participation in D1 sports). My son, for example, chose Chicago <em>in spite</em> of the weather there and the D3 sports, not particularly because of these things. On the other hand, he also loves a serious, intellectual environment, and perhaps the lack of D1 sports is part of what promotes this at Chicago. But my guess is that no matter how much correction the market has left, Chicago’s weather, lack of D1 sports, or lack of Ivy League affiliation will still pose barriers for some prospective applicants. That’s OK in my book; it’s a big part of what gives Chicago its special identity.</p>
