Ariana served as a Chapman University Alumni Association Board member from 2014 to 2020. Jason is a member (and past president) of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chapman.edu\/law\/alumni\/alumni-board.aspx\">Fowler School of Law Alumni Advisory Board<\/a> and serves on the law school\u2019s Dean\u2019s Counsel. The couple has also made contributions to the Keck Center for Science and Engineering and the Chapman Fund, and are members of the Charles C. Chapman Legacy Society.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe set an intention to get involved and stay involved in as many meaningful ways as we can,\u201d Jason said, \u201cwith the the end goal of being the go-to within the the community for all things, and in that way, be able to support the students, the staff, the faculty, and the community in any way that we could dream up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When it became clear last spring the impact that COVID-19 was going to have on students, economically and otherwise, Ariana and Jason made an additional gift to help offset those burdens, including helping to cover basic expenses such as rent and groceries for students experiencing financial hardships.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI remember clearly graduating into the economic crisis that started in 2008 and how devastating that was, but I was still able to go to class, see my classmates, and get support from them,\u201d said Ariana. \u201cBut in this situation, it felt so devastating for these students who might be very quickly unmoored financially, emotionally, and intellectually. That was the impetus behind making sure we could contribute to the support of those students.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Seeing fellow alumni like Ariana and Jason give back was partially what inspired Camuti to get more engaged with the Chapman community after he graduated, starting with his selection to the Fowler School of Law Alumni Advisory Board.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was very fortunate to be selected to represent the class on the alumni board,\u201d said Camuti, who is also now a member of the Dean\u2019s Counsel. \u201cThat was my first step in really being involved with the alumni work. Being on the alumni board is where I met Jason Burris and all of these people who are so successful and generous as alumni that were very encouraging and supportive of me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Aside from serving on the Alumni Advisory Board or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chapman.edu\/law\/about\/deans-counsel.aspx\">Dean\u2019s Counsel<\/a>, Camuti notes that alumni have plenty of other avenues for getting or staying involved in the Chapman community post-graduation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s really something that I view as a tremendous privilege to be in a position now that I can give back to law students and the alumni network through participating with mock interviews and hiring interns and law clerks when I can,&#8221; said Camuti.<\/p>\n<h3>A Community Resource<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13742\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13742\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13742\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/law\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/71\/2021\/02\/camuti-open-house-handshake.jpg\" alt=\"Nate Camuti shakes hands with prospective law students\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/law\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/71\/2021\/02\/camuti-open-house-handshake.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/law\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/71\/2021\/02\/camuti-open-house-handshake-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13742\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">One of the many ways Nathan Camuti (JD &#8217;14) gives back to Chapman is by attending events such as Law Admission Open Houses.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Even beyond formal board positions and volunteering or giving opportunities, Camuti says just staying in touch with other alumni provides terrific benefits and has been a boon to both his personal and professional life.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Being involved now is about reaching out to attorneys and saying, \u2018Hey, can we have a Zoom coffee,\u2019 and trying to build those relationships in other ways,\u201d Camuti said. &#8220;Just to be active in the alumni Facebook group gives you visibility. Then people know who you are and what you do. By being active and participating with alumni, it really broadens the referral network that you have. Chapman alumni have a very, very strong loyalty to each other.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI love having that resource, the community, that support,\u201d Camuti adds, \u201cbut I also realize that for me and other people to have the support, we have to create that community to provide the support.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the Burrises said that getting involved with the larger campus community beyond the law school also helped build not only their professional network, but their circle of friends as well. \u201cWe have people that we\u2019ve connected with that Jason knew in undergrad,\u201d said Ariana. \u201cIt\u2019s just so many different places those people are coming from, building real relationships and real friendships.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During his remarks on behalf of the Alumni Advisory Board at the <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/law\/2021\/02\/05\/latest-group-of-fowler-school-of-law-graduates-admitted-to-state-bar\/\">virtual Bar Admission Ceremony<\/a> hosted by the Fowler School of Law in January, Jason reinforced the importance of engagement with the university after graduation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlumni are the backbone of this law school,\u201d he said. &#8220;A law school can have the best professors and scholarly publications, beautiful buildings, wealthy donors, and impressive statistics, but the picture\u2019s not complete without engaged alumni who possess a vibrant sense of community and generosity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>Header image: Jason Burris &#8217;02 (JD &#8217;08) speaks at the Fowler School of Law Bar Admission Ceremony in December 2018.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Chapman University Fowler School of Law graduates log on to take the bar exam online this week, one less thing they\u2019ll have to worry about is where their nourishment is coming from, thanks to the law school\u2019s Bar Lunch Program, which provides each exam taker with a voucher to use anytime during the week of the bar exam.
