The University of Chicago has a unique feel of a small college situated on the campus of a large research university. With a disproportionate number of graduate students (8,000) to undergraduates (4,000) there are opportunities for undergrads to get involved in academic research. The departments are small and many faculty enjoy getting to know the undergrads. And faculty get to know those undergrads participating in research - often times on a first name basis. President Don Randel has been seen dining with students in the Bartlett dining hall and having cocktails with fraternities. My history professor taught me to play handball. Interaction between the undergrads and professors is frequent as most of the faculty live nearby in Hyde Park.

The gothic-style building's on the southern side of Chicago are well worth the visit. Hyde Park itself is a quiet, residential area but only 15 minutes away from downtown Chicago. Small, student-run coffee shops scattered throughout the campus are frequented by students, faculty, and physicians from the U of C's hospital (which borders the main quadrangle).
