Discussion

Northwestern professor Bill Savage sits down for a discussion 6:30 - 8 p.m. Nov. 13 with Sun-Times columnist Neil Steinberg, whose new book You Were Never in Chicago is a memoir of Steinberg's time in Chicago, from arriving to attend school at Northwestern to rising to the upper ranks of Chicago's journalists.

(Gleacher Center, 450 North Cityfront Plaza Dr.; admission $10.)
