32 American Rhodes Scholars for 2012, No UChicagoan.....

<p>Also, as this link shows:</p>

<p>[Rhodes</a> Scholars | The University of Chicago](<a href=“http://www.uchicago.edu/about/accolades/rhodes.shtml]Rhodes”>http://www.uchicago.edu/about/accolades/rhodes.shtml)</p>

<p>It seems that U of C seems to win this award in clumps. In 2006, 3 Chicago students won the Rhodes, and then no one from Chicago won in 2007. Then, in 2008, 3 more Chicago students won the Rhodes, and then no one from Chicago won in 2009. In 2011, 3 more Chicago students won, and in 2012, no Chicago students won. Maybe 2013 will be a good year for the U of C??</p>

<p>Generally, the only schools that win Rhodes Scholarships with true consistency are Harvard, Yale, and Princeton. In fact, Harvard (with 332 total winners) blows everyone else out of the water - H nearly has as many Rhodes winners as Yale and Princeton combined. (Yale and Princeton have around 200 Rhodes winners each.)</p>
