  • SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT COLLEGES & UNIVERSITIES, Inc
    SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT COLLEGES & UNIVERSITIES, Inc. 2020 Annual Report RTUS T VI S E ITA VER a voice for independent higher education in south carolina Message From the Chair This annual report marks my first year as Chair of the Board of Trustees of South Carolina Independent Colleges and Universities. Little did I know when I became chair last October that in a few months the world would face the onset of COVID-19. As you review this year’s annual report, you will see how our stakeholders came together to support our member institutions throughout this crisis. Independent higher education in South Carolina never wavered in equipping diverse, intelligent, and highly engaged students to become principled leaders in their professions and communities. While financial support is important every year, COVID-19 put unprecedented monetary pressures on students and their families. I would like to thank all our donors whose scholarships often made the difference that allowed students to remain enrolled. In particular I would like to thank the South Carolina Student Loan Corporation and the Council of Independent Colleges for generous new scholarship funding, and the Bailey Foundation for reaching the milestone of contributing scholarships through SCICU for 50 years. It has been my deepest honor to be associated with SCICU and its board of trustees for their dedication to assisting our campuses, enriching the lives of our students, and providing a bright future for all who call South Carolina home. Thank you all for your continued support of independent higher education in South Carolina. Jerry Cheatham Chair, SCICU Board of Trustees Staff VP of Finance, Industrial North America Sonoco Products Company 2 Message From the President As with so many organizations, our 2020 Annual Report is the “COVID-19 Edition.” Much of what we have done in the past months has been to support SCICU member institutions in responding to the myriad challenges posed by COVID-19.

This research and policy brief, a quarterly synthesis of issues addressed by investigators and affiliates of the National Center for Early Development and Learning, focuses on transition activities and policies. The brief examines issues surrounding transition to kindergarten and how U.S. schools support this transition. The brief encourages policy makers to broaden the focus on children's readiness skills to one encompassing the settings that influence those skills--family, peer group, preschool, and school and suggests needed policy changes and factors in need of further research.
