Happy U

Article Abstract:

Once a small, low-profile commuter school, DePaul boasts a beautiful campus in Lincoln Park, a substantial presence in downtown Chicago, and has become the largest Catholic university in the US with some of the happiest students. However, the growth seems to have come at a cost, as some students think the courses are not as challenging as they used to be because classes are larger, and there is a divide between the on-campus and commuter students.
