Sports Exist

We are a division three school so low turnout at sports events comes with the territory. We do our best to tailgate and have a good time but its always going to be pretty lackluster.

Drug Scene

UChicago is very liberal on its alcohol policy. Drinking is rampant on campus. Weed is very popular also. I give it a D just because the I don't do the drug/alcohol scene, but if you're into that type of thing...then you won't be disappointed.

Crime

Crime is out of hand on the UChicago campus. Not only do we get security alerts about muggings and assaults quite often, but the students all know that they aren't even reporting them all. I feel unsafe most everywhere after 9 pm.
