This blog is an account of some of the many activities that are going on at Coker College in Hartsville, S.C. The majority of content is from R.A. Puffer, a professor in the communication department. It is an attempt to provide some ideas about how much goes on at this dynamic liberal arts college in Northeast South Carolina -- in Hartsville, about half way between Charlotte, NC and Myrtle Beach, SC.

Athletics Academic Award Banquet Celebrates Achievement
Lotta Aaltonen of Finland and a four-year member of the Coker Cobra Women's basketball team was awarded Academic Athlete of the Year at Coker College during an awards dinner on March 31.
Dr. Robert Wyatt, president of Coker College, congratulates the academic award winners of the various athletic teams at Coker. This was the largest number of athletes to win major academic honor in most people's memories. I think I was invited because I am a member of the Faculty Athletics Committee and I really enjoyed seeing the athletes honored for their academic achievements. I was amazed at the number of students who had 4.0 semesters.
Jessica Covington and Becky Dillon are communication majors honored for their academic achievement. Jessica is a member of the Coker cheerleading squad and Becky is a pitcher/outfielder for the Coker softball team.
