Dual keynotes mark CCRC fifth anniversary

The Campus and Community Research Collaborative (CCRC) celebrates its fifth anniversary on Thursday, Oct. 12, with an expanded program across multiple venues. 

CCRC kicks off with its Newcomers Orientation in Johnson Auditorium at 8:30 a.m. Breakout sessions immediately follow at 10 a.m. Pre-registration is requested. Attendees may register for the specific activities or the entire day at coastal.edu/ccrc.

Dual keynotes will be hosted in Wheelwright Auditorium at 11:30 a.m. Both represent the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Controls. Myra Reece, director Environmental Affairs, oversees DHEC’s Office of Environmental Quality Control and Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management. Nick Davidson, director of Community Health Services, ensures service delivery of DHEC’s community health clinics.

The signature of CCRC remains its speed-dating luncheon scheduled in Atheneum Hall at 1 p.m. During this time, faculty engage with community partners to yield dynamic student learning outcomes.

CCRC is supported by the Office of the Provost and the Office of the Vice President for Research & Emerging Initiatives.
