Illinois has it going on, and so can you when you take an SLP job here!  A number of quality museums also attract people to this state. Not to be missed are: the Art Institute of Chicago – which houses both a museum and a school, Adler Planetarium and Astronomy Museum, and the fascinating Museum of Science and Industry. But don’t spend too much time inside or you will miss seeing: The Sears Tower – the tallest building on the continent, the Chicago Post Office at 433 West Van Buren (the only post office in the world you can drive a car through) and the Chicago River –which is dyed green annually in honor of St. Patrick’s Day. You can even catch a game while you are here. But which sport to choose? There are “home teams” in every major sport including the Chicago Bears, Chicago Bulls, Chicago Blackhawks, Chicago Cubs and Chicago Whitesox. Not to be left out? The Chicago Fire soccer team!
