Urban Studies

Ewelina Wojnarowski When I decided to do the ACM Chicago Urban Studies Program, I was very excited, yet did not know what to expect. In just one semester, I learned more about the city of Chicago than I did my whole life living just outside of it. The people that we met with and places that we went were a better explanation of what Chicago is all about than any textbook could give. I am so happy that I decided to spend a semester in Chicago, because it definitely changed my perspectives and plans for the future.

—Ewelina Wojnarowski, Chicago Urban Studies, Spring 2009
