The Coastal Carolina
University Alumni Association was founded in 1976 as a unified
effort to maintain contact with and plan activities and services
for former students of what was then Coastal Carolina College,
a branch campus of the University of South Carolina.
In those early
years, Coastal's alumni were a close-knit group who were,
for the most part, from within a five-county radius of the
campus.The development of the alumni association was a natural
result of the institution's progress from the early days of
associate degree awards to 1974 when the college first began
offering four-year degrees.
The Alumni Association
has evolved with the growth of the campus community.Today,
alumni live in nearly every state of the nation and in numerous
foreign countries.Opportunities for alumni have expanded to
include a yearlong calendar of events for varying constituent
groups and for the entire 12,000-alumni body.
The Alumni Association
is under the leadership of the Director of Alumni Relations
and the Alumni Association Board of Directors who are elected
each year during its annual membership meeting.
