CSU named Purple Heart University
Charleston Southern University has been named a Purple Heart University, an honor bestowed by the Military Order of the Purple Heart.
Several local Purple Heart recipients attended the service Wednesday, November 13 at the university. Guest speaker for the event was Dr. Rodney Lewis, retired U.S. Air Force General.
CSU President B. Keith Faulkner, a U.S. Navy veteran, said, “We are honored to proclaim CSU a Purple Heart University. We value our men and women in service currently and those who have been wounded and given the ultimate sacrifice to our country.”
The Purple Heart University designation recognizes the efforts of Charleston Southern in supporting Purple Heart and military-affiliated students in their educational endeavors.
Speaking on behalf of the CSU chapter of the Student Veterans of America, Chapter President Christopher Brabham reminded veteran students, “The world is big. Meet people, network, and most importantly, serve God and stay safe.”
Charleston Southern is also a Gold status Military Friendly School and a VA Yellow Ribbon Program university. CSU has been providing educational programs and services to military personnel and their families for over 40 years.
