The following are series events that happen each semester. These student favorites are a great way to get involved and meet new people:

- Become an R.E.P. (Refined. Exceptional. Professional.) a series for the Seniors to learn important skills before they graduate and connect with Chatham Alumnae. Students learn to network, participate in an etiquette dinner, learn the art of wine tasting and much more.
