Our Student Government Association always gets a big band or artist to come play for us. We have had LMFAO and 3OH!3. These concerts cost a small amount and are a great part of what Chapman Offers to their students. I went to the 3OH!3 concert this year and had such an amazing time. The gym is packed full of people and it is a fun filled dances fest! Another fun thing is the dance department puts on Midnight Breakfast during finals week, where they perform and have food afterwards. It is lots of fun and a great break from studying.

Every Wednesday of finals week, students participate in Undie Run. We all just wear our underwear, or really whatever we want, and run through the Orange Circle. It's a great stress relief! Also during finals week, puppies come to the piazza for us to play with and have some fun before we head off to study for the next test.

Our school is known for its buisness and film program, but what is much more important, and apparent once a student studies here, is the devotion that the teachers give. All my teachers are willing to help me out and want to see me succeed. They know me by name and check up with me when they see me. It's nice to know that I matter, even though I am just one student.
