The Chronicle's
New Face
This summer's edition of the Capitol Chronicle sports an inspired new look, complimenting the college's recently revised and
updated vision. The new outlook on the college's future will start a wave of
new initiatives and projects, and we hope the new format of the college's
magazine will spark a new wave of support from our loyal benefactors. In addition,
the Chronicle is going
greener (the print version is FSC certified and on 50% recycled content including 15% post consumer waste) by going online - new page-turning software allows you to interact with
the magazine as never before, and it's compatible with your iPhone, iPad, and
other e-readers. Read it now!
