In the history of the Rome Center, there's always been a kind of tug between Chicago and Rome, ... The people who are in charge of the Rome Center feel as though they're under constraints from Chicago and the people in Chicago want to treat the Rome Center as if that's an extension of our school here.... If it's true that no full-time faculty are going over there at all ... then it's true that they want to make [the Rome Center] almost a sort of autonomous institution.  -   Kenneth Thompson     Quotes
