UChicago at Davos: President Zimmer's Remarks on the U

Thank you for posting the link Cue.

I really enjoy David Rubenstein’s interviews, although I’m a little happy not to be the interviewee. His questions, for me, carry just the right amount of provocation. And they keep the interviewee, even very very intelligent ones like Robert Zimmer and Minouche Shafik, just a little off balance. His sense of humor really appeals to me. It’s almost as though Pres. Zimmer is his straight man. I say that with respect.

Aside from that, as a closet conspiracy theorist, I would like to pose this question. Why did UChicago choose to invite the Director of LSE to this panel discussion?
