A few more questions for current students =)

I had a few more questions regarding the University, and I decided to continue on this thread rather than to start another one just to ask a few questions.


Is the campus safe? Does the University help to ensure safety? Do current students feel safe?
Does UChicago host a wide variety of speakers, artists, and performers?
Are people generally involved in clubs, student government, sports, and other extracurricular activities (I think I’ve asked this before a long time ago)?
Does the University promote diversity? Are different cultures and values reflected in the curriculum? Is there an international presence?


Hopefully these questions will help me make an important decision: whether to attend the University of Chicago, which is my first choice school but gave me a crappy financial aid offer ($26,000 a year!?) or Swarthmore, which is my second choice school but gave my family enough aid for me to attend school with absolutely zero loans.
