Chicago...?

I am attending a meeting tonight about the possibility of completing my internship in Chicago. I have lived in Michigan my entire life. I've actually lived in the same home my entire life (except for living away at college). I am looking into this possibility because I feel the need to experience more than just Michigan teaching. Also, I would like the opportunity to work in an urban setting where my students will come from very diverse backgrounds. Growing up in Royal Oak, Michigan I was given opportunities that many children only dream of, however I was deprived of much diversity within the student body of my schools. I feel that working with students from various backgrounds will ultimately make me a better teacher, and possibly a better person in general.
