Dear <strong>Coppin</strong>ite:<br />
Welcome to <strong>Coppin</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>University</strong> (CSU). I greet you on behalf of the Board of Regents,<br />
the entire <strong>Coppin</strong> community, and welcome you to the family. We are so pleased that you<br />
have chosen <strong>Coppin</strong> to continue your education, and fulfill your dreams and aspirations.<br />
We are located in the heart of Baltimore, which is affectionately known as “Charm City,”<br />
where we offer the warmth of local neighborhoods in an urban setting. Founded in 1900,<br />
and named for famed educator, Dr. Fanny Jackson <strong>Coppin</strong>, CSU is a comprehensive liberal<br />
arts institution committed to excellence in teaching, scholarship/research and continual<br />
community service.<br />
I encourage you to take full advantage of what we have to offer as a <strong>University</strong>; reach out to<br />
faculty, staff, and other students and seek guidance and ask questions whenever necessary.<br />
The valuable resources that are available to you as a <strong>Coppin</strong> student are unmatched. The<br />
“<strong>Eagle</strong> <strong>Guide</strong>” is one such resource; take the time to become familiar with this student<br />
handbook, which is a resource guide that will answer many of your questions about<br />
campus life, career opportunities, and academic resources available. The administration,<br />
staff and faculty are here to assist you in having an experience of a lifetime and the<br />
opportunity to turn the dreams of all those who made it possible for you to be here into a<br />
reality.<br />
We look forward to your active participation in student affairs and the many collegiate<br />
activities available.<br />
Finally, we invite your feedback regarding your experiences on campus, and how the<br />
quality of those experiences can be enhanced. There are survey boxes located throughout<br />
the campus, please make full use of them to share with us your ideas and concerns.<br />
Again, welcome the family, and I look forward to interacting with you throughout the<br />
campus.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Reginald Avery, Ph.D.<br />
President<br />
