<p>idad, as impressive as your son’s performance was during that board meeting (and I truly mean that) it does not address my concerns with U of C. Your son was proposing and defending a theoretical course of action that was yet to be taken. Implementation and adaptability in the midst of implementation are two very different things, as is the recognition reality does not line up with theory.</p>
<p>I’m not saying your son is not capable of these things, but I will say that most u of c students are not. For them, the only real course of action that is proper is that narrow, virtually impossible to achieve subset that lines of with the perfect theories in their head. And most of the time that is impossible to achieve, and the students are supremely unhappy. I think this is the root of the “where fun comes to die” slogan, not the amount of work we get here.</p>
<p>Finally tk89, your insult isn’t even original. I’m sure it worked oh so perfectly in your head, but it has failed to apply in practice.</p>
