<p>Sam Lee is such a wonderful ■■■■■-- I just think he’s in the argument to once and for all prove that Northwestern rules and Chicago drools.</p>
<p>Given all that Chicago does to discourage applicants, I’m surprised we have the numbers that we do. Chicago doesn’t play nice; it doesn’t market itself as an everything to everyone school. It sends students weird postcards and will still keep its uncommon questions even after the highly-contested changeover is bound to happen. The tour guides I know don’t do anything to cloak the geeky and academic vibes pouring out from the school, and people who have gone to info sessions say the admissions officers talk about the nerdy nature of the school. It seems like we do everything we can to screen out people who wouldn’t want to go here, and even with those screening attempts we still have a heap of 10,000 applications and only about 1,100 spots.</p>
<p>This year, the university overenrolled significantly, and first-years are apparently living in what has traditionally been upperclassmen housing. So whatever Sam Lee might think, more and more students are salivating over Chicago.</p>
