Good news for the college.
The Mayor announced on MSNBC’s Morning Joe (starting at 4:30 in the clip) that Harold Washington College would be the “professional service school” of City Colleges. He reiterated our position at the 10,000 Small Businesses graduation. Additional coverage is here at the Sun-Times.
Yesterday was a good day for HWC. Thirty-seven 10KSB scholars graduated from the program. Our business faculty from across CCC played a leading role in teaching the courses. Several of the small business owners have talked to me about how they can play a more active role at the College. And, we now have nationwide exposure to our role in College to Careers.
More to come.

It was a good day, indeed. This is exactly what is needed to take HWC to the next level. It is truly an exciting time for us.
Congratulations to HWC (and you!) What a great opportunity.
