I shall present a proof of universality of the microscopic spectral correlations in Verbaarschot's random matrix models of QCD, to corroborate the beautiful agreement between the predictions from the gaussian model and the numerical data. Rather than following closely the original proof, I shall disguise it with the conventional approach of Q, P operators and with the method employed in an alternative proof by Kanzieper-Freilikher, in a hope that borrowing notions from quantum mechanics may add the proof some pedagogical flavor. I shall also discuss a problem associated with the multi-criticality.
