Caldwell’s Super Dad

strubel — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 19:00:36 +0000

CSU alumnus Natalie Caldwell (’08) was featured in Saturday’s Post & Courier. She, of course, has a rooting interest in Sunday’s game between the Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints.

Her father is Jim Caldwell, head coach of the Colts.

“It’s amazing. I had to stop and take it all in after the game last week. This is something we’ve been praying for, first for my dad to get an opportunity to be a head coach. We never imagined he would be so successful and go this far this first year. It’s truly been a blessing for my whole family, and him especially.”

Help the homeless, donate a meal

strubel — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 19:37:36 +0000

Did you know Charleston County ranks fourth in the state with 416 homeless people or families?

According to the South Carolina Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), 4,664 men, women and children are considered “homeless” in South Carolina.

Now you have a chance to do something.

On Tuesday, November 17, Charleston Southern University students can help feed the homeless. It’s simple, too. Students with a meal plan through Aramark can swipe their meal card in front of the CSU cafeteria or Edwards Express and donate their lunch to Celebration Station, a North Charleston homeless shelter.

The effort is part of a campuswide service project by CSU and Americorps Campus Compact to create awareness and support for the homeless across the Lowcountry.
