Sydney DeVries A frustrating part of my college experience was not being able to concentrate more on my interests or majors, so I applied for the ACM Chicago Arts program to finish out my last semester. Talk about going out with a bang! This program threw me into a pool of possibilities and experiences, and I participated in and experienced things I never would have gotten to had I stayed on campus, including working at an all-night jazz club right in downtown Chicago. If you want real, hands-on, life-altering experiences, consider the Chicago Arts Program for a future semester. You won’t regret it.
