For 112 years, the University of Chicago has been a home for world-changing ideas. This fall, an unprecedented confluence of events—including the dedication of the Graduate School of Business Hyde Park Center and the Comer Children’s Hospital—provides us with an extraordinary opportunity to celebrate the wealth of Chicago’s human capital.
World-Changing Ideas: A Forum will be one of the highlights of our celebration—and testimony to the University’s imaginative exercise of inquiry. The Forum brings together internationally renowned Chicago faculty to discuss the ideas that will make the most dramatic impact on medicine, economics, and the metropolis in the next generation.
