In this episode of “Chicago This Week,” we celebrate Memorial Day with events throughout the city as we kick off the start to summer. A Mississippi State transfer joins Northwestern University’s football team. It’s time for the Crosstown Classic, and we talk to Chicago Cubs and White Sox fans about the rivalry. The iconic house from the movie “Home Alone” is on sale in a northern suburb, and we visit the neighborhood.

“Chicago This Week” is a half-hour show that features news, sports, business and entertainment stories from around Chicago. All the producing, reporting, writing, shooting and editing are done by Medill graduate students.
