Outside of South Carolina, clubs are located in California, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, Maryland, Michigan, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Texas, and the District of Columbia.
We have a total of 50 active alumni classes with a goal of 65 within the next 5 years. Most of our support from classes is derived from those in years of 1974 and older.
Alumni clubs and classes serve the college most directly through fundraising, recruitment, and volunteer service activities. They also serve as ambassadors of the College, providing a vital link between the College and the communities in which they reside.
