There are a variety of reactions to people hearing that I go to the University of Chicago: 1. "UIC?" (NO!) 2. confused look 3. impressed look.

当我告诉人家我要去芝加哥大学的时候人们通常有三种反应:1,“伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校?”(不!)2,懵了。3.刮目相看。

I think U Chicago is just the right size. It's not too small where you know everyone, but it's not too large that you might get lost. Well, people in California don't really know of the school. So when I was first telling people that I was going to attend the school, most of them just warned me about the weather and said bring a heavy coat. Out here, however, people often mistake U of C for UIC and it can be very annoying.

我觉得芝加哥大学大小正合适。它不会小到你人人相识,也不会大到你迷路。额,加州的人可不会知道我们的学校。所以当我第一次告诉人家我要去报到的时候,他们中的大多数人警告我注意天气变化带些厚衣服。到了芝加哥,人们老是搞混芝加哥大学和伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校,真烦人。

When I tell people I go to UofC they act like I accomplished something wonderful. I spend most of my time in the library, reynolds club, and the dining halls. WE HAVE NO COLLEGE TOWN!
LANDIL Freshman
当我告诉别人我去了芝大的时候他们的反应就像我有了丰功伟绩一般。我花了大部分的时间在图书馆、雷诺兹俱乐部和食堂。但我们没有大学城!
