Dear Students,
Welcome to Coastal Carolina University.
You have chosen to join a university community where integrity and
excellence are central to your experience. As part of that experience,
you will find a thoughtful and welcoming academic family where
your ideas and aspirations will be nurtured. It is my hope that you will
embrace the many ways your faculty and staff will offer support as
you reach for your dreams.
As you begin your journey, I urge you not to be discouraged when
you encounter obstacles in your path. There are many people on this
campus — faculty, staff members, counselors —who are here to pro-
vide guidance and assistance as you define and achieve your goals.
Your success, after all, is the purpose of this institution.
I wish you the best of luck as you begin this new chapter in your lives,
and I look forward to your active engagement in the classroom and
across campus.
Sincerely,
David A. DeCenzo, Ph.D.
President
