When was the last time you were on campus? If you haven't visited Coastal lately—say in the last two years or more—you’re in for a surprise. As the map shows, the campus has undergone tremendous physical change since the late 1960s when the inset photograph of the horseshoe and Singleton Building was taken. Today, the university has more than one million square feet of building space on 260 acres. The Fowler farm property, purchased last summer by the Coastal Educational Foundation, will allow practice fields for student-athletes and recreation areas for the entire campus community. Construction is under way for the football stadium, which will be ready for the Chanticleers’ inaugural NCAA I-AA game on September 6, 2003. The university’s top priority for new construction is securing public funding for the expansion of the R. Carthcart Smith Science Center, which houses the fastest growing undergraduate degree program and the newest graduate program—a masters’ degree in coastal marine and wetlands study.
