Business, Entrepreneurship, & Society

Sean Hershey The Chicago Business, Entrepreneurship, & Society program is seriously excellent. As a student, I was frustrated at being stuck on-campus learning in a closed-off institution, and I felt like I was living in a bubble. I spent my entire junior year off-campus, studying the fall semester in Ireland and coming back for the spring semester to do ACM’s Chicago Programs. I have never before felt more attached to my education. Learning about Chicago in Chicago is such a good way to actively participate in society as a student. While many college students are forced to seclude themselves to their campus bubble, anyone on this program gets the benefit of a real education, from down-to-earth teachers, about the actual world.
