Dear Eagle Nation:
We are now in the third week of classes, and members of our campus community are settling in to their routines and the rhythm of the academic year. I want us all to be part of the positive momentum we are building during this new academic year, and go ALL IN for Coppin State University, and our community of scholars.

We are now one week away from the 20th Coppin State University Golf Classic on Wednesday, September 20, 2023 at Greystone Golf Course, in Harford County.
I encourage everyone to join us for a morning of golf, or for a number of fun activities as part of our non-golfer experience.

Last year, we raised more than $70,000 to support our dynamic student-athletes, who lead the Mid-Eastern Atlantic Conference with an 89% Graduation Success Rate. This year, we are aiming to surpass that performance and raise $100,000 to support our scholars. I hope you join us, and stay connected to Eagle Nation!
