The City Colleges of Chicago Harold Washington College

Overall HWC is okay. Like some people posted before this, if you get involved, you'll make friends and have fun. I don't feel like getting involved so I just go to class and go home. But everyone's nice. If you're an attractive girl you'll get catcalled at and followed every now and then, but it's your choice to pay attention or not. The school's very diverse and there's lots of places to socialize (like the student lounge in the basement, computer labs on 4th floor and the 2nd floor computer place/lounge). I don't plan on staying here and I can't wait until this semester is over so I can go away to college. But it's a pretty good school. The teachers are friendly and they all have office hours. And don't be afraid to ask questions; I've heard some of the dumbest, lol. There isn't really anything too bad about the school, it's coming up; the building looks really nice now and it's upkept, the washrooms are clean too. Maybe the building being redone makes the faculty happier because I don't notice any angry faculty. The classes get a little boring, and the catcalling and following gets annoying, but besides that it's okay. Just make sure if you're not going to get involved, talk to other classmates, because there's no other way you're gonna make friends. Peace!
