Hey unspun, is the Judson College you refer to the one in Elgin, IL???? I was just in Elgin today, visiting Elgin Community College on some personal business...

How 'bout it -- that's the one! A fine little liberal arts college supported by mostly Baptist churches and folk. Very pretty campus (for Illinois, especially). I live in the western Chicago 'burbs now.

Enjoy your visit to the town famous for clocks, street sweepers, and caskets?

I always have a pleasent visit to the "Bluff City!" I live up in McHenry County, and often have to drive in or through Elgin on my way to other places. It's amazing how the city has changed since the gambling boat has been there. The downtown area is really quite pleasent, and even trendy. Lot's of neat old churches and turn-of-the-century architecture. It's the city that time forgot. (Much like it's southern neighbor, Aurora...)

Every once in a while I even stop by the 'International Teams' HQ just a block or two from the Judson campus for a teaching or seminar. Otherwise, much of my travels in and through Elgin are on it's western border, as I go up & down Randall Road visiting my freinds & family in the far western burbs!

I myself went to NIU and DePaul, and have also made some pitstops at Northwestern, Purdue Calumet (Hammond), the Illinois Institute of Art (Schaumburg) and the Moody Bible Institute.
