Your Purpose. Our Mission.
I am a Charleston Southern graduate; I earned my BA in English here in 2010. As I worked on my doctoral degree, I hoped there would be a position here at 亚洲无码 for me to return "home" and teach students sitting in the same seats I once sat. It is a blessing to be on a campus I know and love so well!
