Brittany Alston My semester in Chicago on the ACM Chicago Arts program was hands-down the best semester of my entire scholastic career. I had the opportunity to meet amazing people, explore talents that I didn't even know I had, work at an internship that I loved, and learn about Chicago, a city that I grew up in but never understood so well until now. Most importantly, there was a sense of freedom and independence that you don't really get in more conventional classes on-campus. You really are living on your own in the middle of the third largest US city. It was phenomenal!
