Have you ever noticed how many pictures of Jim Doti are splashed through the media? Pick up an Orange Coast magazine in your doctor's office and Mr. Doti is smiling on several pages. In the last edition of Chapman's alumni "fold-out" he appeared seven times. The man has an ego as big as the mountains he likes to tell everyone he climbs. Maybe Mr. Doti should pay more attention to his campus then his personal PR machine.

I think Champan spends and inordinate amount of its money on media for Mr. Doti and others, because it is battling the impression that there school is a fourth tier school.

Itl amazes me that students spend their parents' hard earned money at Chapman when UCI and Fullerton are close by.

Just came across these comments and figured I'd throw my hat in the ring. As a graduate of Chapman University, I take pride in knowing that Dr. Doti is working hard to spread the Chapman image, which he is indubitably linked to the success and brand equity of the university. I see him on campus at least once a week simply walking around and find it unwise to judge him based on his PR efforts. Thank you for your thoughts.
