What’s up tanners!
In this video I talk about everything I hate about UChicago (aka things you should know about UChicago before coming here / things I dislike about UChicago / things I did not expect about UChicago / expectations vs. Reality (sort of)).
From UChicago classes to the campus to how UChicago student culture manifests to how safe UChicago as a campus is, I discuss a few of my thoughts on my two years of experience thus far!
Stay tuned for part two of this video, aka Everything I love about UChicago :)
P.s. WE HIT 7K WHAT!! Also keep your eyes peeled for episode 2 of College Review Live ☻ You can find my form "itschloetan Livestream: College Apps Special💕✨" at: form.jotform.com/201788439037160

0:11 important disclaimer!
0:44 Even though UChicago as a school has unity & solidarity, but individual communities within UChicago is quite isolated and I find it difficult to break out of your bubble/circle
3:36 Grade deflation is not a thing anymore - BUT some classes in specific departments are quite heavily curved and that’s just kind of sad
5:16 Core classes (with the same course number) often vary vastly in difficulty, and students have little way of knowing this until they experience the different sections & have to struggle to drop / switch sections or just struggle
6:54 There are basically two (ish) extremes of what a “successful” student looks like at UChicago and I don’t like either :(
10:24 “Dismissive” listening at UChicago & how students often feel the need to justify with workload and busy schedules why they’re feeling a certain way
12:52 How racism (subtly or not) manifests itself into how students at UC perceive the safety of being in south side chicago + how I think this needs to change
15:35 Playing “devil’s advocate” and how that is sometimes used as a substitute for people discussing the implications & impact of situations as well as their own opinions - there’s a time and place for every conversation, and some need to be had without positing new perspectives you personally might not believe in

‼️BLACK LIVES MATTER, even though the protests seem to be no longer a "hot topic" and media coverage is decreasing. The problem is NOT solved, our attention span has simply lapsed.
I try not to talk politics on this channel (follow my ig if you want my thoughts) -- but this is beyond "political". This is a legitimate hazard and disaster for society.
