<p>I am in general agreement, but can Chicago attract more students without changing its academic environment and unique character in order to do so? It is indeed true that the faculty are the driving force at Chicago, or at least have been. When S1 attended an orientation with Dean Boyer he made it quite clear that they (the students) were admitted “for the faculty.” Hopefully, they will continue to have some say about admissions. I think that the VP of Enrollment will be from outside the University, but the Admissions Dean should have some connection to the school and its traditions, which is one reason Zimmer was chosen as president.</p>
