## History[edit]

Sculpture by Raymond Persinger of Charles C. Chapman, founder of Chapman University Wilkinson Hall Schmid Gate, built in 2005 A section of the Berlin Wall in Liberty Plaza

Founded in Woodland, California, as Hesperian College,[9] the school began classes on March 4, 1861. Its opening was timed to coincide with the hour of Abraham Lincoln's first inauguration.[10] Hesperian admitted students regardless of sex or race.[11]

During its first decades of existence, the school relocated and changed names several times. The school initially relocated to Berkeley, California, in 1896, merging with the Pierce Christian College (a school previously established in College City, California, in 1874) to form the Berkeley Bible Seminary. Soon after, the school relocated to San Francisco and took on the name California Bible College.

In 1920, the school moved again, this time to southern California, after its assets were acquired by the California Christian College,[a], a school that had been established by the Southern California Convention in Long Beach, California, in 1918. The two schools had been merged into a new institution called the California School of Christianity, located in Los Angeles.[12] Three years later, in 1923, the school changed names yet again, back to the California Christian College.[13]

In 1934, the school was renamed to Chapman College[14] after the chairman of its board of trustees (and primary benefactor), C. C. Chapman. In 1954, it moved to its present campus in the city of Orange on the site formerly occupied by Orange High School, which had relocated.[14]

Chapman established a Residence Education Center Program to serve military personnel in 1958. This evolved into Brandman University and later University of Massachusetts Global.

Chapman College became Chapman University in 1991.[14] In that year, James L. Doti became president of Chapman University. Also in 1991, the Department of Education became the School of Education, now known as the Donna Ford Attallah College of Educational Studies, and what is now known as Wilkinson College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences was established.[15]

The School of Film and Television, now the Dodge College of Film and Media Arts, opened in 1996.[16] Between 2000 and 2010, Chapman University expanded to include the Rodgers Center for Holocaust Education, Leatherby Libraries, Fish Interfaith Center, Marion Knott Studios (The home of Dodge College of Film and Media Arts), the creation of the Argyros College's Economic Science Institute – led by Vernon L. Smith (2002 Nobel Prize winner in Economic Sciences, the Erin J. Anderson Athletics Complex and the Schmid College of Science and Technology.[17] The Rinker Health Science Campus opened in Irvine, CA. in 2013, becoming the home for the School of Pharmacy.[18]

Mathematician Daniele C. Struppa became President in 2016, taking over for James L. Doti. In the same year, the Musco Center for the Arts opened. The 1,110-seat concert hall draws more than 30,000 visitors per year and hosts both professional and student performances.[19]

Chapman opened the Keck Center for Science and Engineering in 2018 with the Dale E. and Sarah Ann Fowler School of Engineering opening shortly after. Between 2018 and 2022, Chapman University earned a Carnegie Classification of R2: Doctoral University – High Research Activity, had its first Rhodes Scholar, Vidal Arroyo '19, and became nationally ranked by U.S. News & World Report.[20]

On September 29, 2023, it was announced at an event attended by the Argyros family, along with Earvin "Magic" Johnson, that a $10m gift from the Argyros family would elevate the Argyros School to the Argyros College of Business and Economics.[21]

### Argyros College of Business and Economics[edit]

The George L. Argyros College of Business and Economics is located in the Arnold and Mabel Beckman Business and Technology Hall.[22] Founded in 1977, the school is named after George L. Argyros, a Chapman alumnus and former U.S. Ambassador to Spain. Argyros has chaired the board of trustees of Chapman University since 1976 and has donated significant resources towards establishing Chapman as a leading national business school.[23] The business school was renamed in Argyros' honor in 1999. In 2019 Argyros College celebrated the 20th Anniversary of the naming of the school, capped off with a special fundraiser dinner on October 9, featuring special guest President George W. Bush.[24] The event raised approximately $15 million for the school's endowment, $10 million of which was a surprise announcement by the Argyros family. The $15 million raised is believed to be the largest 1-day fundraising event in Orange County's history.[25] Up until 2023, Argyros College was referred to as "Argyros School." A $10m gift from the family elevated the title, making the official name the Argyros College of Business and Economics. The event was attended by Earvin "Magic" Johnson, Julianne, and George Argyros as well as their daughters Stephanie and Lisa. [26]

Argyros College offers undergraduate and graduate degrees in business, including the Master of Business Administration and Master of Science.[27] In 2023 Argyros was ranked the #60 business school in the country by U.S. News & World Report.[28]

The Argyros College of Business and Economics was officially nationally ranked as the 60th Best Undergraduate Bloomberg BusinessWeek Business School in 2014.[29] In 2016, the Argyros College of Business and Economics rose to 34th in the same Bloomberg rankings.

The Argyros College is home to several research centers and institutes, including the A. Gary Anderson Center for Economic Research, the C. Larry Hoag Center for Real Estate and Finance, the Ralph W. Leatherby Center for Entrepreneurship and Ethics, the Walter Schmid Center for International Business, the Economic Science Institute (founded by Nobel Prize winner Vernon L. Smith and others in 2008),[30] the Institute for the Study of Religion, Economics and Society (founded by Dr. Laurence Iannaccone in September 2009),[31] and the Smith Institute for Political Economy and Philosophy.[32]

The Leatherby Center for Entrepreneurship and Business Ethics is a program whose scope includes original research, scholarship, and the publication of several scholarly journals.

The current home of Attallah College is Chapman's Reeves Hall, which was one of the first buildings constructed for Orange Union High School on the site in 1913, added to the National Register for Historic Places in 1975, and renovated and reopened to the public in February 2018.[39]
