When Jan travels, she goes to a wide variety of  businesses, indicating interest on behalf of Truman students.  She builds connections with these businesses and the appropriate individuals, which benefits Truman students who need help connecting to possible job opportunities.  Many times these businesses will then come to our Career Expo to connect with students one-on-one, and also to express their genuine interest in Truman students.

Shedd Aquarium

http://www.sheddaquarium.org

The history of Shedd Aquarium is part vision and part ingenuity. Our founder, John G. Shedd, retired president of Marshall Field & Company, was a marketing genius and just as bold and ambitious as his city. He was determined to transform Chicago into a world-class metropolis.

Build It, and They Will Come
By the early 1920's, every truly cosmopolitan city here and abroad had a fine aquarium. While Chicago’s Lincoln Park Zoo did have an impressive freshwater fish collection, what Shedd had in mind was a stand-alone aquarium. In the spirit of “build it, and they will come,” he made a $2 million gift to get things going. He would add another $1 million to make sure his aquarium would be just as grand as the two museums already in Grant Park: the Art Institute of Chicago and the Field Museum.
