Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

Charleston Southern University (CSU) is a private, four-year co-educational institution organized under the laws of the state of South Carolina as a non-profit organization and sponsored by the South Carolina Baptist Convention. The University's mission is to promote academic excellence in a Christian environment.

Activities or mission (Part I)

The University's mission is to promote academic excellence in a Christian environment.

  • Instruction: For the fiscal year 2022-23, enrollment was 3,060 undergraduate and graduate students completing traditional, online, and hybrid courses. 710 degrees (482 undergraduate, 187 graduate, and 41 doctoral) were conferred during the year, and the total number of full-time professors was 202 including deans and administrative appointees. We offered 82 undergraduate degrees and 23 graduate degree programs. Charleston Southern University is regionally accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC), whose mission is to "assure the educational quality and improve the effectiveness of its member institutions". CSU is in good standing with SACSCOC and our next SACSCOC full 10-year review will occur in 2026-27. CSU offered 3083 courses including 474 online and 125 graduate courses during the 2022-23 academic year. The university experienced a significant return of full-time traditional students while expanding program offerings for non-traditional students. U.S. News and World Report evaluated more than 1,800 programs last year and once again, CSU is the top-ranked program in South Carolina for Online Bachelor's Programs for Veterans, ranking No. 22 nationally and No. 1 in South Carolina. Overall, Charleston Southern is ranked No. 39 nationally for Best Online Bachelor's Programs and No. 2 in South Carolina. Deans, senior administrators, and faculty members are continually in touch with local employers, many of whom serve on our Advisory Boards for the various colleges and divisions, including business, education, nursing, and computer science. CSU continues to develop new programs to increase workforce readiness through internships. As the preference for remote working continues, we have found more employers are seeking to enroll their employees in online classes to enhance their mastery of technology via the internet. We continue to increase the enrollment in our BS in Aeronautics degree program. We currently have 70 students taking these classes. We continue to review their interest levels in specific areas and have upfitted an on-campus simulation lab for the large number of students interested in pursuing this degree. The Physical Therapy program continues to grow with a new cohort of 48 students entering the program each May. The Health Science Building was fitted with the appropriate equipment in the laboratories and classrooms that will enhance the abilities to conduct research and practice new skills. Similarly, the Physician Assistant Program continues to be a growing program with high levels of competition for admission. CSU faculty and staff remain involved with the Trident Advisory Board, Trident United Way Literacy program, the Lowcountry STEM Collaborative, and the Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce, and continue to increase our opportunities to build partnerships with international companies who have a local presence. The College of Education has also partnered with local private high schools to offer dual enrollment to students who are interested in transferring to CSU after they graduate from high school. The Teacher Cadet program reported 180 students enrolled, remaining one of the largest programs in the state.

  • Academic Support: The University library (approximately 250,000 volumes held) provides online and in-person support for the principal academic divisions. The L. Mendel Rivers Library includes a coffeehouse, Java City, on the main floor and several small study rooms available by reservation for students on the second floor. Charleston Southern University students may access the Internet within limitations to facilitate diversity and personal growth in technology, informational research skills, complete online classes and exams, and practice Netiquette and online communication skills. The library is also a depository of US Government documents, a member of PASCAL, the statewide academic library consortium, and provides free research and instructional services to students, faculty, staff, and guests. Internet access is provided free of charge to all students in the computer labs and library except for pre-determined lab fees that are required for some classes. CSU is a completely wireless campus, providing access in the residence halls for all registered resident students. We continue to increase the number of e-books and electronic databases as more of the academic literature is becoming available online rather than in printed format. Every student, staff, and faculty member have full access to classroom tools to facilitate study individually or in groups as well as attend classes virtually. The Reference Desk is always staffed in person and online for student assistance and our library staff are all credentialed and granted faculty status.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

The filer's explanations (Part III)

Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a Travel for companions
Travel for companions: The President's and President Emeritus' wives travel with them on occasion to support development and public relations efforts of the University. The governing board has specifically authorized this and recognizes it as necessary and for bona fide business purposes; this benefit is therefore not included as taxable compensation to the President or President Emeritus.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a Tax indemnification and gross-up payments
Tax indemnification and gross-up payments: The University provides reimbursements for tax obligations for various fringe benefits for all officers, the President Emeritus, Director, PT Program, VP for Enrollment/Marketing, and Interim VP for Enrollment. This benefit is included in taxable compensation.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a Housing allowance or residence for personal use
Housing allowance or residence for personal use: The University does not have a residence on campus provided to the President free of charge as do many colleges and universities. In order to address this inequity, the governing board has authorized payment of a housing allowance to the Charleston Southern University President. This is included in taxable compensation. A ministerial housing allowance is also provided to the President, VP of Strategic Planning, VP for Student Life and Dean of Students, and the Interim VP for Enrollment. Pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 107, ministerial housing allowances are provided for qualifying ministerial employees. This is not included in taxable compensation. All officers noted above met the qualifications for and received a ministerial housing allowance during the tax year. The President Emeritus receives a housing allowance that is treated as taxable income on his W-2.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a Health or social club dues or initiation fees
Health or social club dues or initiation fees: The governing board has authorized the payment of social club dues for the President and the President Emeritus for the purpose of entertaining University donors, board members, etc. Business use of these clubs are not included in taxable compensation since they are for bona fide business purposes. Personal use of these clubs are included in taxable compensation.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a Personal services
Personal Services: The President and President Emeritus are also authorized by the governing board to receive reimbursement for housekeeping and yard services specifically for events where University guests are entertained at their personal residences for bona fide business purposes. This is not treated as taxable compensation.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 4b Supplemental nonqualified retirement plan
Per instruction from the University's governing board, a nonqualified retirement plan has been established to which the President Emeritus, Dr. Jairy Hunter, is authorized to participate. Total amount contributed during the year was $1,000.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 7 Non-fixed payments
Non fixed discretionary bonus payments were paid to all employees in May of 2022, inclusive of officers and key highly compensated employees and are reported accordingly for individuals listed on this return on Schedule J, Part II, Column B(ii).

Part I's answers as filed. A line not listed was left unanswered; on lines 1a and 3 that means the box was not checked.
