Purchase the Crain's Chicago Business executive recruiter list. The NY list notes the professions each firm recruits for, and I assume the Chicago list will as well. Find those that recruit for law firms, and off you go.

How much is the cheapest studio apartment in a safe Illinois/Chicago suburb

How much is the cheapest studio apartment in a safe Illinois/Chicago suburb?
What kind of pricing range should I expect? 670? Can I get something less than that? I want to be somewhere safe for a single girl...Aurora and Elgin has some cheap places, but they're in not so good areas. My school is in Schaumburg, but I know that area is expensive...What are the other good suburbs near there that would have less expensive studios if any? THanks.

have you tried lisle? i don't know how safe that city is but they had cheap apartments by the college there when i was searching for apartments. i have a 1 bedroom apartment for $750 in naperville. it's a safe area and close to the train station....it's kinda far away from schaumburg but so is aurora. i doubt you're going to find anything cheaper than $650-700 in a safe area :[ maybe you could try to find a room for rent? that is usually cheaper then having your own apartment but it might not be what you're looking for.

Have you tried Elhurst... a studio is like $700 or if you want something near public transportation, in Villa Park you can get a 1 bedroom appartment for $650 a month.

I am currently looking for apartment options because I will be attending this school. Other than the recommended Presidential Towers, and the Dwight lofts. Just in case there is nothing available for me to rent. I found a website http://chicago.apartments.com/ that will show different apartments in different locations, but I do not know what the area the school is located in called. For instance...

It is the downtown area. The school is located in the Merchandise Mart. I would call it the near northside meaning it is north of downtown yet very close to downtown. I found out that they list two campuses. The second one is located in Schaumburg which is about 20 miles outside the city limits in a northwest direction.

Haha, I ask myself the same question daily. NIU is like the Toyota of colleges. It is hip, ahead of the game, and reasonably affordable compared to other products in its industry...more or less, they're an incredible value! All these "prestigious" schools, like University of Illinois, are more like GM. They're not bad schools, but they are such powerhouses in the industry that their name gives them a better reputation than their products can live up to. Nothing against U of I, but their business program doesn't even have a true Marketing Department. And if business carries out in the University Industry as it did in the Auto Industry, it will only be a matter of time before consumers truly understand who deserves the prestige. I didn't really answer your question, but hopefully you got some enjoyment.

i don't know anybody from chicago. but if you buy this book: A Master Course in Feng-shui by Eva Wong ISBN: 1-57062-584-0, it will instruct you how to use the flying stars method. buy the second edition, as it has more examples at the end of the book. it is one of the books that teaches authentic fengshui. if you are interested in taking a course, take a look at www.fengshuisos.com. i have been taking some courses under master peter leung. he is based in toronto. the best thing about his courses is that it is not that expensive compared with the other masters. and the course is in english. just be careful in choosing a school or a so called master. it is important to look at the history of their experience. how long have they been practicing? who are their clients? are the clients rich now and doing okay? family lineage does not prove that the person is good. among the chinese community there are only a handful of good masters, most of whom are in asian countries, or do not teach like ms. eva wong.

yes, and it is very good and reliable school as well as feng shui consultation. Try Feng Chicago Center located at 3258 West Irving Park Road,Chicgo, Illinois 60618 with tel. no. 773-478-8878. They have been a member of US FENG SHUI ASSOCIATION SUCH as ww.fengshuidirectory.com or www.internationalfengshuiguild.org for over 10 years. The master is a lady from Philippines who does real estate and mortgage brokerage businesses also in Chicago and had lots of clients who are very happy with her advise especially in the field of businessess. Her name is Patty Par. Only few masters ran other businesses and they do not have offices but this Feng Shui Chicago had offices located in the main street of Chicago. Their consultation services and the way they teached feng shui class is remarkably and originality unlike other schools it takes forever. There you can do for a short while like one day. Try and you will be happy.

Illinois is a great state in which to home school. The laws are fairly easy with which to comply. That frees you up to focus energy on helping the boys. There are some great home school support groups out your way, too. I used to live in Downer's Grove. To get a good idea of the general home school laws, get links on how to start, and even possibly find some loval support groups, you can start with one site. www.hslda.org You do not need to join them to get information from them to help you start.


2
Well, you should also consider what they want to do. Homeschooling can be very lonely, despite what groups you get involved with, it just isn't the same as you might think. It's slightly complicated to understand if you have never experienced it, but people seem to treat you differently once they find out you homeschool. =/ So I say you discuss this with them before your mind is made up. Although some children are less social, maybe it is good for them and they won't mind. I have no idea, that is your choice. I am just dropping by to say, it isn't as fun as it seems/looks. It becomes progressively difficult as the years go by. I wouldn't particularly advise such a thing for a 13 year old, that is when I personally switched from real school to homeschool. I miss the difference, and I notice I have less of a social outter life than I am used to. I would say you never actually adjust, but for a 15 year old, it is only a few years. I would say that is enough freedom to explore other area's for himself by himself. Isolation can be a great thing, but also a very lonely experience.

I kinda want to attend this suburban college Governors State U.as oppsed to UIC (university of ilinois at Chicago which is a really big school) but GSU only have approx. 6000 students considering this school is only an upper level division that means that you can only transfer in as a junior and up or have completed an Associates at another institution. Which school would be best Uic had about 60 students a class Gsu had approx 15 students a class. Which would be a better option should i worry about the enrollement in these schools

It's not that the size of a university has anything to do with how good it is, in general. It's how well that university fits you, personally, and size is definately a consideration. If you feel that U Illinois Chicago is simply too big for you, and that GSU is a better fit because it is smaller, than that's a completely valid choice, and you're probably right. Go with your gut. So long as both schools are respectable and appropriately accredited, and GSU offers what you want, then go there.


2
The number of students that go to a school matters less than the number of students per class. Smaller classes mean more attention and help. I would talk with the admissions people at Governor's State and see if your completed credits will transfer. Most schools are really picky about what they will accept. If the school you received your associates degree from is a nationally accredited institution and the school you are trying to go to is regionally accredited you have little to no chance to transfer your credits. The plus to big schools is that more people are familiar with them and a future employer would have some name recognition. Good luck!


3
Whatever is cheaper! It also depends on your program of study.....my sisters O.T. (occupational therapy) classes only had 4 students in it. I went to the biggest university of my state and there were 60+ students in general courses and about 20+ students in my program of study. Your professors are still going to be just as available to you for any needs, concerns or questions. I attended a junior college that had about 25 students and I found that they were worse behaved than the university students. Also, most professors do not tolerate excessive noise and disruption in classrooms so you shouldn't worry that your education will be sacrificed or ruined.


4
I vote for smaller is better. With 15 people in a class everyone has to be prepared because you really can't hide. The prof will know your name (great for when you need a letter of recommendation), you should get really interesting discussions and you will learn from your peers. Not to mention you will be more challenged because you will have to think on your feet and be able to explain your answers to the class. Great preparation for the work place or grad school!


5
Look at the variety of classes offered in your field. UIC probably has more choices. GSU probably gives more individual attention. (This may vary with the major.) Also make sure that the classes will "make" (have enough students to be worth actually teaching the class) and that you will be able to line up classes to graduate on your schedule. Beyond that, go with whichever you feel more comfortable with. For undergraduate the degree is more important than the school.

Another Obama lie. Why did Obama lie about being a law school professor in constitutional law at the University of Chicago during his senate race for Illinois at 2004. How can he honestly become president if he has to make up lies to become the senator of Ilinois?

Here is a credible source: http://blogs.suntimes.com/sweet/2008/03/sweet_obama_did_hold_the_title.html Pathetic. Trying to deny the truth.

Obama isn't qualified Lawfully , to be President. The following came from a USNA alumnus. It'll be interesting to see how the media handles this... Barack Obama is not a legal U.S. natural-born citizen according to the law on the books at the time of his birth, which falls between December 24, 1952, to November 13, 1986. Federal Law requires that the office of President requires a natural-born citizen if the child was not born to two U.S. Citizen parents. This is what exempts John McCain, though he was born in the US Panama Canal Zone. US Law very clearly states: '. . . If only one parent is a U.S. Citizen at the time of one's birth, that parent must have resided in the United States for minimum ten years, five of which must be after the age of 16.' Barack Obama's father was not a U.S. Citizen is a fact. Obama's mother was only 18 when Obama was born. This means even though she had been a U.S. Citizen for 10 years, (or citizen of Hawaii being a territory), his mother fails the test for at-least-5-years- prior-to Barack Obama's birth, but-after-age-16. In essence, Mother alone is not old enough to qualify her son for automatic U.S. Citizenship. At most, 2 years elapsed from his mother turning 16 to the time of Barack Obama's birth when she was 18. His mother would have needed to have been 16 + 5 = 21 years old at the time of Barack Obama's birth for him to be a natural-born citizen. Barack Obama was already 3 years old at the time his mother would have needed to be to allow him natural citizenship from his only U.S. Citizen parent. Obama should have been naturalized as a citizen . . . but that would disqualify him from holding the office. The Constitution clearly declares: Naturalized citizens are ineligible to hold the office of President. Though Barack Obama was sent back to Hawaii at age 10, any other information does not matter because his mother is the one who must fulfill the requirement to be a U.S. Citzen for 10 years prior to his birth on August 4, 1961, with 5 of those years being after age 16. Further, Obama may have had to have remained in the USA for some time frame to protect any citizenship he might have had, rather than living in Indonesia. This is very clear cut and a glaring violation of U.S. Election law.

The public does not care. the public has been confused and no longer can tell the difference between right and wrong, good and evil or normal and abnormal. They are teaching our kids in school that homosexuality and cross-dressing is normal and healthy and should be celebrated and experimented with. They are teaching them that religion and God are "fairy tales" and believers are misguided, judgmental hypocrites. They are teaching them that the US is a racist, sexist nation. They are teaching them that our police are brutal and racist. They are teaching them that out troops are murderers. They are teaching them that humans have the ability to alter the global climate and that we are in the process of destroying the Earth and all of its inhabitants. They are teaching them that it's fine for teenagers to have sex and they are giving them birth control pills and condoms starting at m11 years old. They are teaching them that it is wrong to enforce US immigration laws. They are teaching them that all forms of diversity should be celebrated, no matter how weird, negative, abnormal or immoral. They are teaching them that there are no moral absolutes. All types of horrific behavior have some sort of valid justifications. Nobody brought up in today's environment can tell right from wrong.

By that standard, so was Abraham Lincoln. He blatantly campaigned on his poverty-stricken childhood. He was indeed born in a log cabin. But his father was one of the richest people in Larue county. The log cabin on display in the Kentucky museum has no resemblance to what Lincoln lived in as a child. Do you think Andrew Jackson never told a lie? How about Theodore Roosevelt? How about Franklin Roosevelt? How about George H.W. Bush? How about George W. Bush? How about Bill Clinton? How about Ronald Reagan? How about Richard Nixon? You know, there was a myth running around some time back that George Washington never told a lie. Well, a myth was all it was. Have you ever told a lie? By the way, I don't know of a single instance where James Carter told a lie. (There may be cases, but I have never heard of any of them.) At any rate, this very honest man was an abysmal president, was he not? Well, I guess I don't get your point. It doesn't seem to add any value to the process. I'm a Republican, and I think we should focus on things that matter. The Senator's exaggeration of his teaching experience does not bother me one iota.

You sound like every other person applying to IMSA. I really can't help you until you get your SAT scores, which separates the men from the boys. Seriously, study a LOT. And make sure your essays are great. And stop thinking "my all time low" or "I usually do better", because IMSA won't care. You have what you have, and crying over how you usually should do better is not going to do anything. Another thing to consider is getting over your perfectionism. I am also a perfectionist, and I will tell you that perfectionism and IMSA is bound to end badly. Just something to keep in mind.

Which school would be best Uic had about 60 students a class Gsu had approx 15 students a class. Which would be a better option should i worry about the enrollement in these schools

I think that the smaller the class, the better. If you're in a big class, professors don't know your name (usually), and you don't have much of a relationship with them. If you're in a small class, you can really participate and be engaged in the class, and get to know the professor (who can write you recommendations for jobs later, and be a great mentor.)
