<p>Seems that it is different, rather than bad. Probably not for everybody, but that doesn’t matter since obviously you are considering only yourself.</p>

“Only at Rice would we talk about [insert remotely intellectual topic].” I always disliked that, and I think it’s a terrible way to view yourself and your peers

</p>

<p>There are multiple perspectives from which one could view that; I said it on one occasion, not to elevate myself above others, but to make salient the opportunities top tier institutions offer for intellectual conversation, and the fact that I value it. </p>

I am kind of in the same boat as you, and I think a school like UChicago would be great.

<p>I agree.</p>
