THE LION STATUES ourside the entrance to the Att Institute stand as landmatks of MIchlQon Avenue. MICHIGAN AVENUE, WITH its Mognificent Mile , Orches- tra Hall and Art Institute, along with other attractions, is the heart of Chicogo ' s Loop. SCULPTURES AND MODERN orchitecture ore some of the aspects of Chicago which set it opart from other big cities. The Chicago Picasso, locoted in the Richord J. D oley Cen- ter Plaza, has received both praise ond criticism from oil who view it. S Chicago Feature Dy Pete Speckhord Just Qs Q politician must attract as many votes os possible to win an election, o city must offer something for every different type of person in order to grow. Chicogo, unlike mony politicions, succeeds. Chicogo offers an excellent cross-sec- tion of cultures, which makes it o greet place to study, Elke Bowman, English and German teacher, soid. Many people don ' t reolize how favorable Chicogo comperes to other cit- ies,” she odded. Foreign language classes especially took odvontage of what Chicago hod to offer through field trips to the Art Institute ond vari- ous ethnic restaurants. The Gernom club spent a Soturdoy in German-town, ond expe- rienced the foreign food, books, ond music. Next year, the club plans o trip to the Lyric Opera to see Wogner ' s Tannnhauser. It ' s important that students know how their knowledge of onother culture applies to the real world. Chicogo is obout the best place apart from the actual foreign country to study onother culture, Charles Geiss, French and Sponish teocher, said. Students of foreign language were not the only ones to benefit from living near Chi- cago, however. Among Chicago ' s attractions for anyone with any interests at all were the Hord Rock Cafe, the Sears Tower which is the world ' s largest building, the Art Institute, pro- fessional teoms from every mojor sport, Gino ' s Pizzo (acclaimed by Rolling Stone Magazine to be the best pizza in the country). the Magnificent Mile or North Michigon Av- enue, Orchestro Holl, and innumerable other festivols and attractions. Hour-long drives on the Don Ryan or the Tollway, trips on the South Shore Line, and Amtrak train rides meant the difference be- tween another day at Southlake Mall and o big-city odventure. I like going in for sporting events. The games are more exciting when you ' re there, ond places like Wrigley Field, Comiskey Park, and Soldier Field are interesting in them- selves. They hove to be, because none of the teoms that plays in them ever wins, senior Dove Miller soid, referring to the fact that both the Cubs and the White Sox finished lost in their divisions in 19S7. Chicogo is an incredible center for music of oil sorts. Not only do all the big jazz ond rock groups ploy there, but the Chicago Sym- phony Orchestra is widely regorded as the best in the world, senior Wolfgong Tsoutsour- is said. Everyone who gives a concert comes to Chicogo, senior Mike Sorenson added. Ma- jor groups whose 1987-88 tours included Chi- cago were U2, Pink Floyd, Bruce Springsteen, John Cougor Mellencomp, Rush, Yes, the Cars, Boston, Dire Straits, and Bob Seger. I am consistently amazed when I come back to Chicogo ot all the fantastic things it has to offer culturolly. The architecture is ex- tremely innovative, and the Art Institute is quite possibly the best in Americo, English teocher Judy Lebryk said.
