I was a student at Daley before transferring to a university and my experience at Daley was very good. It could be because I was involve in the honor society and few other programs/clubs there. However, Daley doesn't really have a great selection of clubs to offer to students compared to other city colleges of Chicago if you want to get more involve at school.
Daley also has a Dunkin there if you wanted to something else other than the food offered at the cafeteria or from the vending machines.
Unless you know where the bathrooms are located, you might find yourself passing by it by it because the door really look like storage door since it blends in to the whole theme there. Overall, would love to see more color or vibrant life at Daley since students often compared it being at jail.

I like Chicago Richard J Daley College newly remodeled facility. The new design makes ambiance more uplifting the bright colors and newly painted walls are welcoming. The upgraded parking lot has plenty of parking spaces for many students and visitor to park. I will change the tuition fee payment deadline request, and evening classes. The tuition fee deadline is short. After registering you have three days to pay the classes or register for a payment plan. Many students are paying out of pocket. It can be difficult to have the money available so soon. The evening classes options are limited to only a few categories. Most student work during the day. It will be great to have the same choices in classes the day student have.
I took a hybrid class for one semester because I wanted to know if I enjoy it. Overall, it was better than I expected since it was sociology class.
Also I was there when students had to transition online midway through the semester because of height of the pandemic. In my experience, my professors did amazing job transition the coursework online in a short amount of time. I still learned and enjoyed my CHEM 203 and PSYCH class the rest of the semester.
