Safety Awareness Day is today!
Today is the last day of Spirit Week at the Palmer Campus, and it focuses on safety. You will find people here to talk to you about safety, including People Against Rape, who are here to educate about consent and support people whose consent has been violated. You will also find our Counseling folks out in force to encourage safe drinking and discourage drunk driving. They will be serving you tasty mocktails to show how fun being the designated driver can be. You will also be able to see a display of a one of our Public Safety Smart-Cars, which our officers use to help keep you safe. Be safe out there!

Schedule for Eastside Day: Celebrating Philip Simmons
Park Celebration
(10:00-1:00)
10:00: Park Celebration begins. You can come by to meet with
venders, learn about Phillip Simmons, and Eastside History. You can view a
contest between tables created by student clubs that celebrate the life and
work of Philip Simmons. You can also meet with
representatives from the Avery Research Center for African American History and
Culture and the Lowcountry Digital
of the African diaspora, with emphasis on Charleston and the South Carolina Lowcountry. The Lowcountry Digital History Initiative hosted by the College of Charleston Libraries publishes digital public history projects that highlight underrepresented race, class, gender, and labor histories within the Lowcountry region and historically interconnected Atlantic World.
11:30: Food arrives. The Culinary Institute of Charleston, in conjunction with Palmer
student clubs, are providing hot dogs, apples, bananas, and bottled water, so
come by the tent under the flag pole and pick some up!
11:30: Philip Simmons Tours
Begin. Philip Simmons’ house, located in
walking distance from Palmer Campus at 30 ½ Blake Street, is now the Philip
Simmons Museum House with a gift shop and operating workshop, where the art of
his craft is being continued by his nephew Carlton Simmons and cousin Joseph
Pringle. Following a celebration in the park, interested participants will have
the opportunity to tour the Museum House. The tours will leave from campus at
11:30 a.m., 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m.
12:00:
Open Mic Begins. Dr. Hudock’s Creative Writing class will
be leading an open mic in which they will share works they have written that
were inspired by Philip Simmons. They visited Philip Simmons sites, watched a
documentary, and learned about him to see how an artist makes their own path as
inspirations for their own. Now they have something to say. Come listen or
bring your own work or songs to share. We will also have karaoke! Also, we will
be announcing the winners of the table contest during the open mic. $1000 for
the best club presentation!
