Group Reflection
Logan Square is the quintessential Chicago Neighborhood. It has a long reaching
history, but still thrives in a contemporary fashion. Exploring this neighborhood is a
great way for Loyola students to sample all aspects of Chicago: the music, the art, the food, and the many cultures. Everything
that makes up this city can be found in its microcosm, Logan Square.
