After 16 years at Chapman, Senior Editor of Chapman and Chapman Forward magazines Dennis Arp has laid down his pen. As the editor and lead writer for Chapman publications, Arp left his mark on readers through his insightful reporting and poignant storytelling that brought to life the breadth and depth of the Chapman experience.
Under his leadership, Chapman magazines earned numerous awards from the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) and other industry organizations. In 2022, Arp was awarded the Silver Quill Award from the International Association of
Business Communicators for his article “After Fleeing Afghanistan, Law School Alumni Find Refuge at Chapman.”
He reflects on the creation of this piece in this video:
Among his favorite memories while working for Chapman Magazine was a trip to eastern Montana to meet and report on legendary paleontologist and Chapman Professor Jack Horner. “It was definitely a highlight to be there when he confirmed that the fossil the team had discovered in the Hell Creek Formation was indeed the complete skull of a T.rex.,” he says.
“Thanks to Chapman innovators, there’s never a shortage of great people to meet and stories to tell on this campus. That’s why I can’t wait to open future issues of Chapman Magazine to see what’s inside.”
