“Much AR technology struggles to connect with ordinary people or only connects for a fleeting moment, as a fad or a game,” says Mar Hicks, a historian of technology and professor at Illinois Institute of Technology.. “Given the price point of Apple's offering, that's unlikely to change.”

In the middle of an open field on the Illinois Institute of Technology campus, Rebecca S. Graff and her archeology students are reconstructing what was once home to the Armour Flats—apartment-style housing built in the 1880s by Armour & Company meatpackers to house their employees in Bronzeville.

A team of student archaeologists is digging to tell the long-buried stories of a grassy South Side site which once housed meatpacking officials, a church congregation and academics at a predecessor to the Illinois Institute of Technology. Students and professors at north suburban Lake Forest College and Morton College in Cicero began excavating the former Armour Mission and Armour Flats, 35 W. 33rd St. in Bronzeville on May 22.

Britt Burton-Freeman, director of the Illinois Institute of Technology’s Center for Nutrition Research, worries the focus on organics may be keeping people from eating enough fruits and vegetables. In her survey of 510 low-income shoppers—most of whom said they preferred organic but couldn’t afford it—talk of pesticides made some less likely to want to buy produce at all. “Food marketers need to have a clearer understanding of how their messages may influence produce consumption,” she says.

“According to McCracken’s ‘Meaning Transfer’ model,” writes Siva K. Balasubramanian, associate dean of the Stuart School of Business and professor of marketing, “over repeated audience exposure to celebrity endorsement ads, the positive perceptions associated with the celebrity will tSiva K.

Celebrity endorsers may be appropriate for certain products/brands and celebrities that are carefully evaluated for optimal product/personality match.”

“You are ultimately responsible for the representations you make,” said Daniel Martin Katz, a professor at Chicago-Kent College of Law who teaches professional responsibility and studies artificial intelligence in the law. “It’s your bar card.”

“It is part of our mission here to meet learners where they are, offer them programs that are accessible both financially and but also from a scheduling perspective, and flexible, as something they can do in their free time,” says Liad Wagman, dean of Illinois Institute of Technology's Stuart School of Business.

Born and raised in Tokyo, Yuta Katsuyama came to the United States as a graduate student in 2018 to study business and design at Illinois Institute of Technology. During that time he launched a food startup called Onigiri Kororin for a school project, which has now grown into a company producing products available at over 30 locations in Chicago. “Sometimes I feel like I'm living a dream,” said Katsuyama. “I always wanted to start my own business.”

“The majority held that you cannot parse a state regulation and say that it’s having to do mostly with morals as opposed to protection for the citizens of the state,” says Harold Krent, law professor at Chicago-Kent College of Law. “So that distinction that was forwarded by the pork producers was clearly rejected by a majority of the court, which is the controversial aspect of the decision because it does then open up other states to enact morals legislation which has an impact on out-of-state commerce.”

“If you’re designing a new building, you have a lot of freedom to look at new technologies that save on energy consumption, but for existing buildings, you have limited options,” says Assistant Professor of Architectural Engineering Mohammad Heidarinejad, who led a research team that studied the effectiveness of window shades in reducing energy consumption
