Professor Betsy Simon will return to school in the fall 2009 to complete her
doctoral studies. Though she will not be able to continue as Director of the Student Life Center, she will continue to
teach an Orientation Course designed for Commuter and Mature students on Tuesday Evenings. Under her
leadership, we have accomplished a lot this academic year and this newsletter recaps key programming events that
occurred since the February 2009 newsletter as well as feature many of the closing events for this 2008‐2009
Academic year. As you view the pages of this newsletter, please remember that all programming, events, activities,
and major decisions regarding their direction and execution were the result of a student driven, student focused, and
student led Student Life Center (SLC). SLC was designed to address the needs and support the aspirations of Coppin
students, especially Commuter and Mature Students and we can say, we have had many successes mixed with a few
challenges but we are proud of our accomplishments. We depended heavily upon the support and assistance of
students and our campus and community partners. We honored these groups at the Appreciation Reception for
Students, Campus, and Community Partners (June 9, 2009). Thanks for all your support as our journey and work
continues. Gratefully, Joyce Castro Rexach and Sherrie N. Alford, Student Life Center Supporters and Newsletter
Producers.
