Nothing to do -- often heard but not always the case

Recently, Jon Driggers, former dean of students at Coker, sent an email out to students, staff and faculty that listed some of the places students could find things going on at Coker and maybe even in Hartsville. We are in a small city. There is often the feeling there is nothing to do but we have a slogan in Hartsville that calls for residents and visitors to "Expect Pleasant Surprises." This is the email that Dean Driggers sent:

From August - October over 167 programs were held in the Campus Life area alone(SGA, Campus Life, Residence Life, RSOs), 54 of these programs were held between Friday-Sunday.

And, if there are not enough events, I usually tell my students they can always use their free time to prepare for classes.
