A parking garage is across the street, but other than that it's a challenge, For safety I would not park off campus. My son swam in his conference meet the UAA. He swims for Washington University. Typically Emory, Chicago & WashU are the top programs in the country. The teams are competing in swim and dive. The facility lacks adequate spectator space for very large meets such as this. The pool is a 50 meter plus diving. It's a great pool and swims fast! The staff at the event over four days was excellent. Ticketing was handled well and the lines organized. They even had a coat check. My deduction of 1 star is the spectator area. Not only small, but the design is poor. Only the two front rows can see well. 3.5 rounding down.

So I'm wondering is this because my wife works for uic. So I thought they would be more considerate When I came I had abdominal pain and I had severe chills. It took them 3hours to get me a warm blanket. They treat a criminal better than me. There were three people at the desk but only one of them was working. This was the worst and unorganized group people. Then on top of that ems was coming in. So you know what that mean. I'll be in here for another 10 hours the devil is a lie. This was terrible service. Oh on top of that the security at the door picked and chose who can stay with their ill love one. And yes guess what I was not chosen still. Someone else was called who just walked wtf.

Recently however the board leadership from the top down has become more political, and more like a sorority, and as a result has lost some of its most devoted and active members who have been a long time integral part of the board and not surprisingly who also donated a large amount of time and money to the University. An overall disappointing experience made even worse by new hires by the University.

If you are willing to play the game it transports you to another time and place. And it's easy to forget where you are when you are gazing at all the gargoyles and architectural details of the building facades, or taking the sun laying on the grass. When classes are on it's the liveliest place on campus. And it's just wonderful to walk around by yourself or with your sweetie on a warm summer night.

Very much a 2017 (or 2015? whenever they did this thing) renovated type look inside-- clean lines, big windows, funky plastic furniture in exciting shapes and colors. (Sidenote: UofC seems really invested in buying interesting new chairs. No building remodel is complete without some sexy yellow chairs. Or maybe a building remodel is just sexy new chairs but the new chairs are so effective with their sexiness that no one even complains about where did all of our cash go?) Large co-working space (or, let's just call it what it is, big room with desks) with plenty of rolling white boards and power outlets and exposed brick. Also a Greenline coffee shop inside. Only problem with this place is that the working area gets no sunlight. So it's like being in a cozy woodbrick pizza oven. If that's your studying/getting shit done aesthetic, all power to ya. Personally I like a little sunlight so I can be reminded of what I'm missing out on outside of my computer screen. Free membership for UofC students.

Myself and my doctor kept calling for the results and they said that they have to receive a release form from me and my doctor so we filled it out and sent it in. We talked to Rebecca over and over and they apologized for the poor service yet there were still no results. After they received the release for the results they looked up the doctor and said she wasn't a legitimate doctor (which is not true and she is a licensed doctor). It is now January and we still don't have the bone scan. Terrible terrible service.

On my way to that building, I passed by Chicago Booth, University of Chicago's business school. The building looked very modern and sleek. Comparing the Chicago Booth building to the Ida Noyes Hall building, there's a huge difference in architecture and overall aesthetic. I personally love the mix of modern and old school/vintage buildings. It adds character to college campuses. I explored a little bit more of the campus, and overall beautiful college campus.

To say you could have knocked me over with a paper towel would have been an understatement. Wow. When I was attending B-school, it was located in old Stuart Hall which is part of the main quad area. I remember on cold wintry days, which were a frequent occurrence, we would sit in a cramped room watching "Oprah" (when she was poorer and fatter with Patti Labelle's old hair) while nursing a really bad cup of joe (in the days before Starbucks exploded). I couldn't wait to get out of Stuart the minute class was over and go to Morry's for a hot pastrami sandwich. But new millennium B-schoolers have this extravagant standalone building two blocks to the east. Adjacent to Rockefeller Chapel and the Robie House, it is a spectacular vision in glass and concrete designed by renowned Uruguayan architect Raphael Vinoly with an expansive atrium where students can spread out on comfy chairs in sunlit lounge areas. I am amazed at how lucky students are to have such a spacious, state-of-the art place to study and network. It made me want to go up to one and tell them how I had to trudge through the snow with my icicle-riddled muffler, but I was afraid he'd call me "Gramps". It's definitely worth seeing if you're in Hyde Park for any reason.

After several screenwriting courses (in person and online), tons of screenwriting books and hours…read moreof audio books on the subject, I found the first, effective screenwriting courses that made the writing version of the perfect "mind/muscle" connection at the UC Graham School Susan Hubbard and the courses I was fortunate to experience made that connection from ideas to action (writing). She is a caring, encouraging and challenging teacher who engages the students and, through examples and exercises, brings out ideas and actions in writing that were buried deep. Susan creates a sharing environment where ideas (good and bad) are explored and, through discussions with classmates, pushed to greater levels. Through video (movies) and a novel, Susan illuminates the course principles and marries them to our ideas. And, even better, classmates come from different backgrounds armed with different inspirations, skill levels and ideas. All are welcomed and all can incorporate the class room teachings into their writing, regardless of story genre. Susan and her classes will get you writing and, best, pushing your writing to levels unrealized. You will be a better writer. Susan and her classes get my highest recommendation and are worth the investment of time and money if you want to be a better, productive writer.

The story I am working on is complicated and often times I find myself wandering in the weeds when trying to get to my next plot point. I was starting to lose hope, but this class re-ignited my vision and my interest in my characters. Susan's feedback was honest, constructive, and empowering. Her feedback helped me narrow down my characters' motives and conflicts. Another thing, I truly appreciated the workshop experience, where the class took turns reading a selection of each other's submission aloud and provided constructive feedback to the writer. I felt a real sense of community in this class. This was such a supportive environment. Everyone worked hard on their submissions and explored the struggle and joy of bringing a character to life. It was exciting to see what my classmates wrote every week and discuss the development of their characters. The party at the end was nice too. This course was definitely worth the investment.
