A brief description of the policies and procedures that ensure community stakeholder engagement is applied systematically and regularly across the institution’s activities:
Coastal Carolina University has engaged with community stakeholders as a part of its strategic plan, the development of the Protection of Minors policy and the Code of Ethical Conduct.
In addition, it is the policy of Coastal Carolina University to prohibit discrimination on the basis of age, color, disability, gender, national origin, race, religion, sex or veteran's status in regard to the administration of all campus programs, services and activities including intercollegiate athletics, and the admission of students, employment actions, or other sponsored activities.
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 and certain other federal and state laws prohibit discrimination on these bases in education programs and activities operated by Coastal Carolina University. Coastal Carolina University complies with the requirements of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, 20 U.S.C. Sec. 1681, et seq., and subsequent regulations, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in all programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance. Coastal Carolina University receives such assistance and complies with this law and its implementation of regulation at 34 C.F.R. Part 106 (http://www2.ed.gov/policy/rights/reg/ocr/edlite-34cfr106.html).
To ensure compliance with Title IX, the President of the University has designated the Title IX Coordinator as the primary contact responsible for developing, adopting and/or assuring the dissemination of the University's nondiscrimination policy and for making the policy available to the University community. In addition, the Associate Athletics Director/Student-Athlete Enhancement and Senior Women's Administrator will make the policy available to student-athletes as required to be in full compliance with the NCAA. The Office of Human Resources and Equal Opportunity will make the policy available to faculty, staff, the University community and the public.

A brief description of how the institution identifies and engages community stakeholders, including any vulnerable or underrepresented groups:
The Office of Multicultural Student Services serves as a liaison for Coastal Carolina University and its underrepresented students. Its purpose is to enhance the academic, social and cultural development of multicultural students through counseling and programming. The collegiate experience is one that will challenge each individual's perspective. The programs offered through the Office of Multicultural Student Services are designed to be catalysts for student success.
List of identified community stakeholders:
Leadership Challenge - The Leadership Challenge program recognizes academic skills and leadership potential in minority students as a means of reinforcing their identity with the university; promotes the development of leadership potential through seminars, workshops, conferences and practical experience; and involves Coastal students in university and community service projects.
SNAP - Students Navigating and Advising Peers - The university provides mentoring for first-year students through programs and activities. The goal of the SNAP program is to help new students adjust and successfully function within the university community by providing positive role models. Each student who participates in the program is paired with an upperclass student to help guide them through their first year at CCU.
Women of Color - Designed to enhance communication, camaraderie and mentorship opportunities among women of color at Coastal Carolina University, Women of Color (WOC) consists of faculty, staff and students who meet bi-monthly to plan and implement events for the campus community.
AAIM - Designed to improve the academic and personal growth of men in the program, the African-American Initiative for Males (AAIM) seeks to increase the retention and matriculation of African-American males at Coastal Carolina University. Members of AAIM also work with middle and high school students in the local schools.
