Northern Illinois

United States

Northern Illinois shares 492 connections with 4725 other places across 25 topics, with sports as the dominant cluster, followed by government and education. Northern Illinois University grounds many of these ties: wrestlers like Curtis Blaydes earned scholarships there, politicians like Bob Morgan and Litesa Wallace earned degrees there, and the collegiate English honor society Sigma Kappa Delta traces roots to a 1996 meeting in Chicago. Chicago, Illinois accounts for many co-connections, alongside midwestern neighbors like Michigan and Wisconsin.
