Division of Student Affairs Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs August 22, 2011 Dear Student: Welcome to Coppin State University! You are now a part of a wonderful family of scholars that we affectionately refer to as the Coppin Family. We want your experiences at the University to be both rewarding and successful. The Division of Student Affairs is here to assist you in this phase of your academic journey, and to help you realize your personal, professional and career goals. I invite you to take full advantage of the information and experiences to which you will be exposed to in the Eagle Guide (Student Handbook). The Eagle Guide is designed as an easy to search reference guide for your matriculation at the University and to ensure that you are prepared to take full advantage of the opportunities and responsibilities the University has to offer. I encourage you to reach out to faculty, staff, administrators, and other students, and seek guidance, and ask questions whenever necessary. Coppin is a wonderful institution of higher education with immeasurable resources and people to assist you in your quest for knowledge. You have joined a community of scholars that are destined to lead, and determined to serve. Coppin graduates have set the pace, and now it’s up to you to assume the mantle and make your mark on campus, in your community, and in society at large. Commit yourself to a life of service, and Coppin and the world will be better served because of your efforts. I encourage you, from the first day of your experience as a Coppin student, to achieve academically at the highest level possible, maintain your high moral and cultural standards, and commit yourself to a life of civic engagement and activism. Again, welcome to Coppin State University where Eagles soar and excellence reigns supreme. Best wishes for a successful educational experience. Sincerely, Franklin D. Chambers, Ph.D. Vice President for Student Affairs 6| P age

STEPS OF THE PROCESS 1. Instructor: The student who has a grievance will arrange a meeting with the instructor involved to resolve the matter. 2. Department Chairperson/Team Coordinator: A.
