Chi-Town 2009, or, I survived Chicago's coldest week in 13 years

UT's advertising graduate council made a pilgrimage to the advertising nerve center - Chicago. Chicago was amazing; we ate some deep dish pizza, saw some of the local landmarks - the Bean and Wrigley field- and visited some of the most famous ad agencies in the country. Even though the job market is pretty bleak right now, it's reassuring to know that these agencies still stand and weather the recession. Razorfish and Google were by far the most impressive businesses that we visited. They were so well prepared for our visit and really made our groups feel welcome and valued. I hope that in six months they're as accommodating, meaning that they give me a job. Let's just say that I'm not holding my breath.
