Chapman alumni answered the call of the wild and shared how nature has made an impact in their lives. Take a moment to check out the stories of your fellow alumni, learn from their experiences and let us know which stories speak to you. The author of the blog that receives the most interaction (likes, comments, shares) will receive an autographed copy of Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail and two reserved seats at Interstices: ReWILDing featuring Cheryl Strayed on Tuesday, September 29 at 7 p.m. in Memorial Hall
