Argyros Student Offers Advice for Classmates
Chapman University’s Argyros School of Business student Jonathan David Chandler offers advice to fellow students after completing his first year of business school. Chandler offers this advice as an MBA student who does not have a business background. Chandler writes:
“With a bachelors degree in communications, I have limited experience with business. My first semester at Chapman, I enrolled in accounting and economics, both being firsts for me. I was nervous on my first day in each of those classes. I thought to myself, how will I do? Will these classes be hard? Can I pass while working full time?”
Chapman explains that these questions are only a few of many he had before starting his first day of classes. Learning how to balance his professional life with his student life was a challenge but Chapman was able to succeed.

Anderson Alum to Lead Prep School
After Paul Rosenbaum (B.A. ’81, M.A. ’84, MBA ’86) completed his undergraduate degree at UCLA, he continued on that path, getting his master’s degree in English. However, after watching a colleague succeed at the Anderson Graduate School of Management, Rosenbaum decided to pursue the MBA program. As he progressed through his studies at AGSM, Rosenbaum decided he would focus on human resources and the nonprofit track.
When Rosenbaum graduated from Anderson Graduate School of Management, he was approached by Viewpoint School to become its business manager, as well as an English instructor in the Upper School. With the appeal of the school’s serene setting on a 40-acre, oak-tree-studded campus and a reputation for quality faculty, he couldn’t resist the offer.
