Chicago Tribune | A question of ambition Another example: A 1983 U. of C. brain-twister put applicants in the role of a school superintendent forced to defend unavoidable budget cuts before the school board. What should be slashed--extracurricular activities such as music or athletics? Special academic programs for the gifted or handicapped? The number of schools? The number of teachers? Salaries of the district's entire staff?
(this is the question I answered that got me admitted. deja vu)
