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.

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.

I had not been to the University of Chicago campus in twenty years when I came back to find the new…read moreGraduate School of Business building. 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.

We had just gone through major renovations to update the law school, and I can say at the time, it was definitely an aesthetically pleasing building. But with all due respect, WSU aint got nothing on University of Chicago's school of Law. I didn't really get to see the entire thing, but here is what I will say. This place is absolutely stunning and an architectural jewel in Hyde Park. I was utterly amazed by the reflecting pool that sits outside of the law school, and is apparently a draw for young kids looking to cool off during the summer. The law library is expansive and beautifully crafted. I would love to have a board meeting in this space. It looks so classy and pristine. I can see why the school is ranked #4 in the country. Hopefully some of our clients can come speak to the students in the near future.

They also have an incubator kitchen that you can arrange to use for anywhere between 7-12 dollars an hour, just in case you were thinking about starting your own catering company. The staff is very well trained and proffesional. I was comparing the resumes of the Washburne staff as opposed to the kendall college staff and was actually pleased to find out the Washburne staff has either more experience in high quality fine dining establishments, and/or higher education than a majority of the staff at kendall. http://kennedyking.ccc.edu/washburne/staff.asp The education recieved there is more hands on than most culinary schools in the nation, and that is without boosting the tuition to rediculous amounts. In total for the associates in culinary arts is around 14,000. Which is also one of the best in the nation for culinary arts. Also students are taught from the same text as the Culinary Institute of America which is considered the best culinary school in the nation.

The school has moved to the South Shore Cultural Center, a gorgeous building restored to its close-to-original grandeur. The cuinary school has opened up a restaurant to showcase the students' cooking: The Parrot Cage Restaurant. Although I have not been to the restaurant, I attended their 9th annual showcase, which was as impressive as the cooking was good. The students really did it up, serving up Japanese-influenced favorites from Black Cod with Miso Sauce to a very tender teriyaki chicken. In the future, I hope to support Washburne with my own donation in the future. To learn more: http://kennedyking.ccc.edu/washburne/parrot_cage/home.html
