Eric Boyken While I am confident that my college has been the right and best place for me to pursue my studies, I also realize the importance of investing in my education beyond the classroom, and the ACM Chicago Programs have provided a fantastic opportunity to do so by engaging us through experiential learning. I have immensely enjoyed living in the city of Chicago, and I look forward to applying how much I have developed personally, professionally, and academically in the program to my educational experience going forward.

—Eric Boyken, Chicago Business, Entrepreneurship, & Society, Spring 2009
