Yesterday we had a blast at the annual Faculty & Staff Appreciation Day with this year’s western theme! We also shared one last lunch with one of our coordinators, Vicky Graves, as she prepares for retirement. Vicky, you will truly be missed, but we are so excited for this new chapter in your life. Thank you for all you have done and for the impact you have made on so many people over the years. Wishing you nothing but happiness and relaxation in retirement!

Earlier this month, two of our SSS Scholars, Deshanell Madison and Asharee Knapper (Bottom row, middle), proudly represented Midlands Technical College at Higher Education Day at the South Carolina State House.

They had the opportunity to hear from legislators, tour the State House, and connect with student leaders from colleges and universities across South Carolina.

We are proud to see our students engaging in advocacy, leadership, and representing MTC so well!

On Friday, SSS toured the home of the Pacers, the University of South Carolina Aiken! The campus was beautiful and welcoming, giving students a great glimpse into campus life. Our students really enjoyed learning about academic programs, student resources, and transfer opportunities, along with having lunch in the cafeteria and experiencing the student atmosphere firsthand.

Afterward, we visited the Aiken County Historical Museum, which was the first campus of USC Aiken. It was enlightening to learn about Aiken’s rich history and see how the university has grown over time.

Last week, SSS took a tour of the University of South Carolina! We explored campus, learned what life is like as a Gamecock, and experienced the energy, traditions, and opportunities USC has to offer. A highlight of the day was enjoying a meal in one of the campus' dining halls and getting a true feel for student life.

Moments like this make transfer goals feel real!
