Nearly two years ago, Taylor Caplan stood backstage at Roberts Hall and saw her future in front of her.
As president of the Campus Activities Team (CAT), she spent weeks helping put together the concert after another band canceled during the first week of school. In less than a month, members of CAT and the Office of Student Life worked tirelessly to find JOJO & Two Friends and book them for the Fall Concert, an anticipated event every year at High Point University.
On a Saturday night, after all that work, she stood backstage and saw hundreds of students crowd onto the lawn of Roberts Hall, hold their iPhones in the air and wave them back and forth like lit candles as JOJO & Two Friends played.
