Oberlin and Oberlin College are the focus of this episode of Applause. In one segment, a tour of the Frank Lloyd Wright house at Oberlin College takes viewers inside Ohio's first Usonian home - the Weltzheimer/ Johnson House. Interviews with one of the home's volunteers and with The Plain Dealer's architecture critic Steve Litt help tell its story. The program concludes with a preview of the Oberlin College Jazz Series and a look the College's Conservatory of Music expansion project. Plus, members of the Oberlin Jazz Septet perform in the Westfield Insurance Studio Theater at the Idea Center in Playhouse Square.
