We’re probably on the same page, but to make it clear: this isn’t a swap for like spaces. The coffee shop was a key informal student space, and the proposed new advising space will be a formal, more regimented space. It’s not a swap of like for like.

This is very unfortunate, and I simply don’t have much confidence in the administration (which is not that different from when I actually attended UChicago, and confidence in the administration was similarly low). Again, to me, UChicago offers world-class academics, but there still isn’t enough awareness of all those other components that make for a strong college.
