I arrived in Urbana, Illinois, home of HAL 9000,
for the Society for Community Research and Action conference.

The Illini Union, site of the conference.

The expansive quadrangle, as seen from outside the union.

Industrial education paves the way for a millennium of labor. Hmm.

The College of Agriculture has a prominent location on the quad.

The golems behind the Foellinger Auditorium.

The Psychology building.

The Morrow Plots, experimental fields which used to take up a large section of the quad. This is where many of the common statistical methods used by psychologists were originally developed for agricultural research.

I was happy to see a few bike lanes.

The implications of this are almost too scandalous to be on this website.

These bikes were apparently for use by one of the other churches in town. Give me some of that old time religion, eh?

A view from 6th Street, across from Psychology building. Green St. and 6th street are the local version of State and Liberty in Ann Arbor. There is even an Espresso Royale!

The Alma Mater statue, now prominently placed at the entrance to campus. The statue was moved from its previously less central location because students were making creative use of the chair behind the standing figure.

Part of the Illinois St. Residence Halls where I stayed, known as “ISR”. There are several buildings representing this particular style of architecture.

The old University Stop from the days of the trolley.

Champaign City Hall at night .
