Dear Colleagues,

Welcome to the SCCPA website!  Thank you for the opportunity to serve as your SCCPA President.  I am pleased you have taken some time to learn about our great association.  Our association is a thriving one that gains strength each and every year.  We currently have over 200 members from across the state of South Carolina. They work in a variety of disciplines serving students at our institutions of higher education.  I encourage you to review the materials on our website and contact me or any board member for more information.

Over the next several months, the Board will be reviewing and updating the Association’s strategic plans and goals they wish to accomplish over the next year.  This strategic plan will guide the association’s events, decisions and services that we provide over the next several years.  Please continue to review our website for updates and future events. 

I invite you to join us on October 20-21 in Columbia for our annual fall conference.  This year the conference will focus on “Connecting at the Core.”  Your colleagues, Rebecca Atkinson at Clemson University and Jason Umfress at Coker College are serving as your Conference Chair and Program Chair respectively.  Please be sure to check out the conferences section of the website to register and find out more information. 

I look forward to another successful and productive year in working with the association.  Please do not hesitate to contact me or any board member with a question, concern, or comment about SCCPA. 

Sincerely,

Jeffrey Brown
