    ALLEN ANDERSON SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT COLLEGES BENEDICT & UNIVERSITIES, Inc. 2016 Annual Report CHARLESTON SOUTHERN CLAFLIN COKER COLUMBIA COLUMBIA INTERNATIONAL CONVERSE ERSKINE FURMAN LIMESTONE MORRIS NEWBERRY NORTH GREENVILLE PRESBYTERIAN SOUTHERN WESLEYAN SPARTANBURG METHODIST VOORHEES A Voice for Independent Higher Education in South Carolina WOFFORD Message From the Chair It would be wonderful if all of our fellow citizens of South Carolina could sit in on a Board of Trustees meeting of the South Carolina Independent Colleges and Universities, Inc. They would see our twenty college presidents working closely with each other and with business leaders across the state to provide exceptional and affordable educational opportunities that prepare our graduates for success in careers and in life. Collectively our twenty institutions educate over 33,000 students and award 23% of the baccalaureate degrees earned each year in South Carolina. Each of our institutions has its own specific mission offering a broad range of options which allow students to choose the learning environment and educational program that best fit their needs and at a cost to their families that is comparable to our public institutions. With many first generation college students, our campuses reflect the racial and income diversity of our state which in turn, helps prepare our graduates with the people skills so important to success in their careers and their communities. A highlight of the SCICU year is always the Excellence in Teaching Award Dinner that recognizes the top professors from each of our institutions. It is a strong confirmation of the value of a liberal arts education on smaller campuses where professors know their students and the culture is all about teaching and learning and student success.

  • Tiger Tracks Professional, NCAA Divisions I, II, and III, NAIA, Junior College, High School, and Recreation Options
    Coaching GettinG Started • Understanding why you want to coach is foundational. Don’t enter the field because you enjoy watching SportsCenter or because you won your fantasy league last year. Become a coach because you are passionate about the game. • Some coaches love teaching players Xs and Os, some love breaking down film and analyzing scouting reports, some excel at prepping the game plan and at game management, and others love mentoring young people on and off the playing field. Identify your passion. • Do not become a coach because you think it will make you rich. Coaches do fine financially, but you will not be as successful if you enter the field just to make money. • Entry positions in the coaching profession are difficult to come by and demand a long, exhausting work schedule—in the office, on the court, and after hours. Keep the coaching lifestyle in mind as you consider your passion for the profession. • Once you have settled on why you want to coach, think about what level you want to coach. Consider Tiger Tracks professional, NCAA Divisions I, II, and III, NAIA, junior college, high school, and recreation options. Career options for academicS at Hampden-Sydney Hampden-Sydney students • Hampden-Sydney men learn how to evaluate problems and think critically. Coaches often are required in Coaching to identify a problem on the playing field and provide a solution quickly. The liberal arts education prepares your mind for that agility. Soak it up and invest in learning, so you will be ready when you need to think quickly and cleverly as a coach.
