[Redrum]

U. of Chicago was on the HS potential-college tour list of the long-since-graduated Redrumette.  I had to work so mom took three kids up to Chicago to visit U. of Chicago. and Northwestern.  Chicago defeated itself by not really having a campus,  at least not the "campus" image that HS senior girls usually have in their noggins.  Then there were the "sketchy" types that made sitting outdoors as they drifted through a shock to these girls' suburban standards.   

But one ended up at Vandy (which has some urban vibe issues of its own), one at Univ. of Kentucky and one at Stanford.  The Redrumette's tolerance for urban has expanded greatly with world experience.  Enough so that she mused that, looking back,  maybe she should have gone to a more diverse, urban school for her grad work.  Too late!  Besides, somebody had to go to Stanford football games with me during her PhD years, and she owed us bigtime.
