This album will provide viewers with a look at Jack's new environment in Evanston, Illinois, a beautiful leafy community on the shores of Lake Michigan, just north of Chicago. Evanston has many beautiful and stately homes, churches and parks and is the home of Northwestern University. Jack lives in the heart of downtown Evanston in close proximity to Raymond Park, commuter train and "El" transportation to Chicago, numerous restaurants, pubs and coffee shops and he is only a five minute bike ride to Northwestern University's beautiful campus. There are no fewer than seven historic churches within a three minute walk of Jack's apartment, and the spires of a few can be seen from Jack's apartment. Northwestern's campus buildings are a mixture of Victorian Gothic structures and impressive modern buildings. Jack has a very nice graduate school location.

Annie May Swift Hall, Northwestern University

Annie May Swift Hall (1895) was designed by Charles R. Ayers in an eclectic mixture of Venetian Gothic Revival and Romanesque styles. The building was named in honor of the daughter of Gustavus F. Swift, the meatpacking tycoon; she was a Northwestern student when she died in 1889 from typhoid fever. The building originally included offices, recitation rooms, a library, a gymnasium, and an auditorium for what was then known as the School of Oratory. That school evolved into the School of Communication, which continues to occupy Swift Hall today ' as does WNUR (89.3 FM), the student-run radio station
