Loopholes
If you consider the various subdivisions of "White" and "Asian" as contributors to diversity, then I suppose one could argue that UChicago is in fact diverse. That having been said, diversity in a more practical and perhaps broader sense is somewhat lacking. Blacks and Hispanics, for example, are few in number relative to the two other aforementioned races. Culturally speaking, a lot of minorities at the U of C are a little on the whitewashed/hipster side and either bury their ethnicity or flaunt it feebly as if they have something to prove.

Fine
A lot of the computers here are PCs running a pre-Vista version of Windows that, although suffices, doesn't inspire a great deal of recreational or intense computer use. The Mac labs are adequate and from what I hear, students can print for free in some of them. Some dorms have their own computer rooms and most major locations on campus feature printers/copy machines connected to a unified printing network which allows students to upload documents and then print them at a specified location.

Grant
I'm on scholarship, and the grant given to me by the school was pretty generous. In fact, I often go so far as to say that it was the deciding factor leading to my enrollment. I lost some federal money this year, but the school can't really do much about that.
