Art Institute of Chicago, Columbia College

Aaron in Michigan asks about MFAs in Chicago. I don't have an answer for him, but if anyone out there does, we'd certainly appreciate it...

I'm interested in living in Chicago and am trying to find out more about the MFA programs at the Art Institute of Chicago and Columbia College. Have you heard much about either or these programs? It's hard to gauge much from their websites. Size? General vibe? Respectability? Also, what's this whole trademarked Story Workshop Approach that Columbia College touts on its website? Thanks!
