Many of the modern environmental problems have been brushed off as things that individuals can and should fix. I’m sick of it being treated as something that only the small people can fix, or even off set, while high rollers are gambling with our futures by spending money on harmful, old fashioned investments. The future of my life, my education, and my country is not for the wealthy to gamble with. UChicago is supposed to be made up of bold and brilliant leaders, striving for innovation, but we are majorly falling behind and not only is not divesting damaging human life and the environment, it’s turning our school into a foolish laughing stock, just trying to make a quick buck. I honestly would not have applied this university if I had know about the horrid and foolish way we are throwing around our dollars.
