<p>Harvard’s more diverse in terms of its students’ mindsets. UChicago students tend to all be very school-for-the-sake-of-school. As a school-for-the-sake-of-school person myself, I very much enjoy being around both people like me and people whose primary goals are accomplished outside the classroom. It feels like a broader educational experience. This isn’t hate; Chicago was my second choice school and had it been cheaper, or even close to the same price, I might have matriculated. $6,000 more per year for the privilege of not going to Harvard seemed a little foolish, though. Also Cambridge’s a lot nicer, safer, and more developed than Hyde Park. It seems silly but my life is significantly improved by the presence of more than one or two coffee/dessert/fast food places within five minutes of campus.</p>
