"Tuition for the 2019-2020 school year is $57,642, while room and board on-campus costs roughly $17,004 per year, and we will work with your family to create a comprehensive aid package that fits your circumstances and ensures that a UChicago education is within your reach."
I can remember a time when my fellow students and I, as undergrads, as grad students, were searching--in the liberal arts--for answers regarding ultimate concerns (yes, we read Paul Tillich) since those answers given us by our society (including churches, etc.) were unsatisfying. The fellow students I'm thinking of--certainly not the majority even then--did not study "business" in college because they (we) had other more pressing concerns. The recent "outrage" expressed by many over the intricate and absurdly expensive "Lori Loughlin / Olivia Jade" cheating scandal (half a million dollars?!) designed to place the daughter, Olivia Jade, into USC is, of course, depressing on many levels. I picked one famous mom-and-daughter pair, but the breaking news on this story listed around fifty families who were involved in this ridiculous cheating scam. Bad as it is, fifty families represent nothing on the scale of what's ugly and putrid in the state of things at colleges and universities when it comes to trading degrees--not necessarily education--for dollars. For me, that's where the "real cheat" happens. Tons of colleges just need the students' tuition so they can keep the lights on in the rec rooms in the dorms. (Yeah, yeah, I know: "we've" scrapped the word "dorms" for "residence halls" to make the place seem much "nicer" and more "comfortable." How about stressing the damn library for a change?) Tons of students in higher ed care little more than Olivia Jade apparently did about attending a university to pursue academic studies and gain knowledge and even, perhaps, gain some wisdom. That almost all higher education degrees mean little to nothing, and that they are available for purchase shouldn't be a surprise. A "degree," with a few glitter schools as exceptions to the rule, that is, in the world of business, perhaps, making contacts, getting interviews for jobs, means nothing with falling academic standards and the rush to cushion everyone's time at the school so that "college" bends too far into the zone of "summer camp for nine months"; but even the poorest college could provide an "education" if actual students were willing to work to gain an education, that is, if they study with professors who will push them with appropriate pressure as opposed to coddling them for their "love." Administrators and professors can sell their souls in this way. This means, also, that true students are willing to search for answers, willing to move into the zones of complexity and ambiguity (moves once required in the study of literature, for example; and these are muscles we should be building to improve our shabby political scene); it's not a "true student" who so eagerly welcomes merely spouting the simplistic "answers" pushed by tribalistic "professors." The problem runs deep. When I heard the initial outrage over the scandal involving TV "stars," I could only shake my head. If these outraged people who learned about the scandal at USC and other universities and then immediately thought of their bright, hard-working children who were not admitted to some of these very colleges that are supposed to be institutions of quality...if these outraged people only knew what goes on much too often in higher education, they'd change the direction of their anger.

Chenwei Wang is an international student from China. She shares her story on experiencing homesickness, missing the Chinese New Year celebration for the first time, and being a Jayhawk:
“This picture was taken on last Thursday on my way back to my dorm,” Chenwei says. “That was a memorable day for me and also for all the Chinese students in America because it was Chinese Spring Festival's Eve, which could be treated as the most important festival of the whole year.”
For the past 19 years, Chenwei’s family has never failed to get together for the holiday to enjoy a big feast and watch the Spring Festival Gala. This year was different for Chenwei.
“This year, I am here, in America, so far away from my home country and so far away from my family,” she explains. “And the worst thing was not only did I have most of my classes on Thursday, but I had to work for four hours after I finished all my lessons. So when my friends and family were celebrating Spring Festival, I was studying and working.”
Chenwei admits that this was a time of struggle for her. After she finished her shift at work, she started walking home on an almost-deserted campus.
“I walked alone, thinking of my loved ones and then, I saw Fraser Hall with an American flag and the KU flag on the roof. I was surprised at this beautiful building but at the same time, it also reminded me that I was now in a foreign land.”
Chenwei says she thought she would never be extremely homesick until this moment.
“At that moment, I was missing my family so much. So I took this picture with my complicated feelings,” she says.
“I was eager to have a video call with my family at that night. I always chat with them through WeChat, but it has been a long time after the last video call. Through the small screen, I saw my parents and my more than 90-year-old grandparents. They said, ‘Don't worry about us, we are good! Take care of yourself!’ The same greeting as usual, but I saw so clearly that all of them were holding their tears. I pretended to be fine although I missed them so badly.”
Although Chenwei couldn’t be with her family for this special occasion, she says that she is happy to have been at KU if she had to be somewhere else.
“I have to say I love KU so much,” she says. “Although I have just stayed here for one semester, I am inspired by its well-organized activities, neoclassical buildings as well as the nice teachers and students.
It is a school full of magic. It makes me feel so proud…. I can't list in detail how good this university is, but I JUST LOVE IT. As an international student, I feel that I am welcomed in this university. Everybody here won't judge me because I am Chinese. Instead I have received lots of help from teachers, friends and even strangers.
Although I am an exchange student and will go back to China at the end of this semester, KU is always with me. I am from KU, so proudly!”
---------------------------------------------------
We wanted to make sure she could share this post with her friends and family, so we asked Chenwei to translate the caption to Chinese:
王晨微是一名来自中国的国际学生。她向我们分享了她第一次不在家过年的经历。
“这张照片是我上周四在回公寓的路上拍摄的。”晨微说,“那天不管是对我还是对在KU的中国留学生来说都是值得纪念的一天。那天国内的除夕,对我们来说,这是一整年里最重要的节日。”
在过去的19年里,晨微一家人都会聚在一起吃年夜饭看春晚,但是今年就不同了。
“今年春节我在美国,离家这么远。”她对我们说,“最让我郁闷的还是周四正好是我课最多的时候,上课结束后我还要打工四个小时。所以当的朋友和家人都在过年的时候我在美国埋头苦干。”
晨微说这确实很让她纠结。在她结束打工走路回宿舍的路上,校园里几乎都没什么人了。
“我一个人边走边想我的家人和朋友,就在这个时候我看到了Fraser Hall。它的屋顶上飘动着美国国旗和KU的校旗,这让我想到了我现在不在我的祖国。”
晨微说,在那一瞬间她特别想家。
“那时候我真的很想我的家人,所以我怀着很复杂的心情拍下了这张照片。”
“那天晚上我迫不及待地想和家人视频聊天。平时我也回聊,但是距离上次视频已经很久了。在这个小小的屏幕上我看到了我的父母还有我超过90岁的爷爷奶奶。他们对我说要保重身体,不要担心他们,他们很好。”和以前一样对问候,可是我能清楚地看到他们的眼睛红了。虽然我真的很想他们但是我还是假装自己很开心。
虽然晨微不能和家人团聚,但是她说她很高兴自己来了KU。
“我不得不说我真的太喜欢KU了。”她说道,“虽然我只在这里呆了一年,但是我被这里组织良好的活动,新古典主义的建筑都让我很惊喜。我还遇到了很好的老师和同学。”
“这是一个充满魔力的学校。作为一个ku的学生我感到很自豪……我没发去详细地罗列出KU到底有多好,但我就是喜欢它。”
“作为一个国际学生,我能感觉到我是受欢迎的。人们不会因为我的国籍而用不同的眼光看我,相反的我得到了很多帮助,来自老师同学甚至是陌生人。”
“虽然我是一个交换生,并且这学期结束就要回国了,但是KU与我同在”
Check out the cleft chins on these young gentlemen from Stanford University, circa 1910.
Back then, to get into a top university, you didn't have to bust your ass in athletics, extracurriculars and advanced placement courses; gin up a sob story about how you overcame overwhelming adversity to excel at everything all the time; and/or collect gilt-edged reference letters from impeccable cabinet-level sources attesting to your incomparable achievements, sterling character, fabulous uniqueness and unparalleled leadership potential at age 17.
No, in those halcyon days all it took was breeding and decent tailor - and maybe a manly cleft chin.
This is from the scrapbook my father-in-law compiled when he was at Stanford in the early years of the last century.
(Actually, as Bill Mahr would say, I'm love these guys. I'm just giving them a hard time because they're caricatures of privileged entitlement. Heck, they couldn't help it. I probably would have liked these men a whole lot more than the binge-drinking obnoxious fraternity louts I went to college with at Northwestern in the dismal 70s. Whether these Stanford men would have liked me, well, that's a different matter.)

Over 300 families received “college knowledge” to prepare their teens for success and lifelong learning!
Throughout the day, children engaged in activities dedicated to Community Helpers. An officer from Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department’s Bears Behind the Badge even visited to read to children during family storytime! Free popcorn and a drop-in dance session from a career panelist rounded out some of the fun activities families enjoyed.
