<p>Just got back from a wonderful family week end at NU; the weather couldn't have been better. Was able to attend one of the engg classes too with S. President Schapiro's speech was laden with humor amidst tones of optimism for the future of this school. NU Revue was simply awesome!</p>
<p>Spent a few hours in Chicago with S strolling along and visiting the parks and museums.</p>
<p>All in all, a wholesome experience of fun!</p>
<p>My wife and I were treated to a Tech Tour - including getting to see the “Floating Door”. When we took our S to dinner at The Celtic Knot, we got treated to a discussion, complete with 4-color charts (they had crayons…) about why knowledge of Calc C is not really necessary to understanding Orgo.</p>
<p>He lost us right away, but its nice to see he’s paying attention! </p>
<p>And they certainly have more programs now, then when Big Sis was there - not that long ago - and Family Weekend used to be Family Day. If NU could have held that lead on Sat, it would have been a perfect day. Thanks Morty!</p>
