Question

The University of Chicago is a prestigious school renowned for medicine, its hospitals, the atomic bomb (enrico fermi), and Nobel laureates, etc. etc.
Someone also told me that UC has a unique teaching style-- I think it's used mainly in economics-- has anyone ever heard of this or can further explain exactly what it is-- thank you in advance

Answer 1

Most of my professors at Duke and Berkeley got their PhDs at Chicago -- and many of them have taught there. Their style of teaching is no different than any other top school.
