1. people! Fun people and people genuinely care and help each other. 在生活中，更在学习和找工作中，大家一直在互相帮助，分享心得与资源，共同进步。这点我觉得很难得。举一个小例子，找banking的工作需要很多 networking，这么多banks来campus做reception，networking。我们每个人都要和很多banker聊天，默默记下他 们的背景、工作的情况、对经济现状的看法，等等。参加的event多了（recruiting season刚开始时，三天见了12个banks），见的人多了，对每个人来说keep track就变成了一件不太容易的事情。于是大家共同share自己networking的contacts：在什么event上有谁，什么职位，哪个部 门，聊了些什么内容，联系方式是什么，等等。这样汇总的一个“数据库”对每个人都受益很大。我觉得这是GSB，oops, Booth，学生们互相帮助共同进步的小中见大的例子。
2. Opportunities. Career opportunities (no need to say more) as well as opportunities to develop yourself the way you want (curriculum flexibility) and opportunities to build up your networks (great people).
3. Resources. With great opportunities, there are also great resources to support you! Great resources in terms of hardware (great facilities， 见照片) and softwares. 关于software，我想，第一是，career service。不要担心得不到足够的关于career的信息，career service提供的有用的信息和资源太多，甚至经常会觉得overwhelm。第二是，faculty。关于teaching先不说，我想先举个小例 子。现在是economic turmoil，正因为是芝大，很多recruiters都会问你们怎么看现在的形式。于是School专门每周发一份newsletter叫 “Chicago On: U.S. Financial Crisis”，summaries了教授们关于经济状况最新的研究成果、分析与预测，来帮助每一个的学生。第三，又是回到great people上去了：不论二年级的还是一起来的同学，都是最好的resource：询问career advice, 改resume，Mock interview，etc. 还是那句话：people genuinely care and help each other here.
hmmm...怎么越说越像是在banking的interview ..... great people, opportunities ... hoho
Since we're recommending classes, here are two classes I ABSOLUTELY LOVED when I was at UChicago as an undergrad only recently:
Entrepreneurship (Waverly Deutsche)
Financial Accounting (Roman Weil)
The two best classes of my life in hyde park! Couldn't get into Commercialising Innovation..
BTW Harper Centre is nice, but I really adore Gleacher Centre (also, as you might be able to tell, I may be studying somewhere else now, but my heart is still very much with UChicago!)
我们有west quest专门target在加州的high tech companies，有很著名的polsky center targeting start-up, entrepreneurship, private equity和venture capital，有很多关于high tech management的课程，还有很多student led groups targeting high tech
