Thanks Jason! When we get there, I'll have to do a more comprehensive tour of the campus and downtown area. You can't do Google Street View very many places around town, so unless you go there, you can't really see how nice it is.
I loved the campus and the tour Jason took us on. I felt like the campus oozed of money - the buildings were really impressive. I know they were building a new building that we could see from Jason's lab window - that must have been the new one you will be going to, Lance. Exciting times!
Here's a list of a few notable Iowa Alumni (faculty and students): Kurt Vonnegut Tom Brokaw Tennesee Williams Dwight Clark Dallas Clark S. Empatha Parkeson (Law and Order) Gene Wilder Terry O'Quinn (Lost) Brandon Routh (Superman) James Van Allen (Astrophyicist - Van Allen Radiation Belt) Dan Gable (Olympic gold medalist,wrestling, 182-1 record from HS through the olympics) John Matuzak (NFL and Sloth in Goonies) Al Jarreau George Gallup David Sanborn The Stoops brothers and many others - I just won't belabor the point or point out the more embarrassing ones (like Tom Arnold).

I'm getting excited to move there! It will be the perfect time going into fall and maybe John will have a snowy Christmas.
