LMU was founded in 1911 and encompasses approximately 150 acres high atop a bluff, providing unbelievable views of everything from Marina del Rey and the Pacific Ocean to the Los Angeles Basin and the Hollywood sign.

As my freshman year comes to an end, the LMU campus is preparing to say goodbye to the Centennial Graduates of the Class of 2012. The entire Sunken Garden is a sea of white chairs in preparation for Commencement, with the length of Alumni Mall in the backdrop. It’s impossible to walk past the stage […]

Gym Class Heroes performed at LMU on Sunday as part of “Collegefest.” It’s an annual event involving music, dancing, drinking for those of us over 21, and a lot of food. Had a great time — which included my first mosh-pit experience! I’m already looking forward to next year’s Collegefest. I apologize for the poor […]

One of the many reasons that I love LMU|SFTV is the Monday Movie Series where movies are screened in Mayer Theater here on campus. Every Monday, we have the chance to watch a feature film, followed by a Q&A with the director, writer, producer or other key principals. Tonight we saw Abduction and had a […]

OK, even though I applied to several colleges and have been accepted to all of them except USC already, I’ve narrowed it down to only three schools; Loyola Marymount University, Chapman University and USC. They have the best film schools, and after touring all three, my decision became a little easier. It might surprise some […]
