That was a pretty neat quip, @LoveTheBard . You can’t be all bad!

With your talk of “gaming” and all the rest of it you simply go once again down the primrose path to admissions hell - the assumption that none of these very substantive admissions levers and mechanisms were designed for any other purpose than “gaming the rankings”, the golden calf before which we all must bow. Fie upon it!

However, I do agree completely with your last paragraph. Choosing a college because its ethos suits you is what it’s all about. I happen to love Chicago and don’t hesitate to say so. I don’t denigrate other schools - except for those cesspits, the lettered ones!
