Margaret Chambers, RID, ASID
Owner, Chambers Interiors & Associates Inc.
"The best part of my experience was that it was all practical — everything I would need to know and do as an interior designer, not just theory. We really learned the nitty-gritty of being a professional interior designer, and after graduating I felt very ready to go out and practice the profession. I don’t think I could have done justice to my clients without going through this program."

"What surprised me the most about Dallas College was that a Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood Education and Teaching is offered. Both my mother and father went to college but never earned a degree, which means I will be the first to earn a bachelor’s degree."
