Happy Holidays from ChathamU!
The song "Chatham Christmas" was recently discovered in the Chatham University Archives. Not much is known about the song besides its connection to the Class of 1952. In the spirit of the holiday season, and in honor of Chatham's 150th Anniversary year, three students from the Chatham University Music Program gathered together to breathe new life into the song.
