The Pharmacy wing of the David
R. Coker Life Sciences Building
was dedicated Saturday by
university officials, students and
alumni with Sen. Strom Thurmond,
R-S.C., as the keynote speaker.
The new wing was built at a cost
of about $3.5 million with almost
$2.3 million coming from a grant
obtained through the efforts of
Thurmond from the National Institute
of Health and the balance
coming from university bonds and
private contributors, university
officials said.
