Coe graduate Fred Jackson, currently a member of the NFL's Buffalo Bills, will be at the college Thursday to speak about his family's new initiative for Division III athletes.

During the fourth annual NCAA Division III Week, Jackson and his wife, Danielle, will be on hand to speak about their time as student-athletes at Coe. The Jacksons will also be talking about their new initiative, D3 Nation.

The event is scheduled to begin at noon in Eby Fieldhouse.

D3 Nation’s focus is to strengthen the bonds and foster pride among NCAA Division III athletes, while providing them with a sense of community. You can learn more about the effort at www.D3-Nation.com.
