CHICAGO (WLS) -- He's one of Chicago's most renowned mayors of all time and soon you can take a college course to learn more about Richard J. Daley.
Starting this spring, the University of Illinois at Chicago will offer courses on the former mayor. They'll be linked to a collection of personal papers and artifacts stored at Daley's namesake library at the school.

"It's going to be a great opportunity for students to learn, not only about Chicago and Mayor Daley, but also about working with original documents and other information-literacy skill," said David Greenstein, visiting lecturer for Special Collections and University Archives.
