how is the photography program at UIC?

How is the photography program at University of Illinois at Chicago? I’m going to be a senior in high school soon, and I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with the program at UIC. How were the facilities (studios, darkrooms, etc.) and the teachers?

Edgar Miller and the Handmade Home: Chicago’s Forgotten Renaissance Man $30.85 Embracing old-world skills in a technological age, Edgar Miller was Chicago’s last Renaissance artist. He was a fine painter, a master wood carver, and one of the nation’s foremost stained glass designers. He could sculpt, draw hunting portraits, and was considered a pioneer in the use of graphic art in modern advertising. His artistic genius came together in four artistic studios he built on Chicago’s north side in the 1920s and 1930s. He touched almost every inch of the studios with daring and surprise. He took rustic brick, crude stone, salvaged tile, found glass, steel, and wood, then “Edgarized” the homes with stained glass windows, frescos, murals, tile work, and wood carving. This collection contains over 400 images of the homes, which remarkably remain intact today.
