Phillip Roth received his MA in English from Uchicago and briefly taught there. Saul Bellow was a towering figure at Uchicago for years. Uchicago continues to be ranked first in English (together with Berkeley). Can any of the experts out there shed some light on how Uchicago has been able to maintain its preeminence in English (which actually came as a bit of a surprise to me, Roth and Bellow notwithstanding).
