This Veterans Day, we salute all who have served and celebrate Gamecock veteran James W. “Jay” Alverson Jr., ’98, recipient of the Outstanding Veteran Alumni Award. 🇺🇸
Through his career in military intelligence and his work as founding director of the South Carolina Military Hall of Fame, Jay has led with respect, built connections and helped honor fellow veterans’ service.
To Jay and every veteran in our Carolina community and beyond, thank you for your service.

Ebony Christie arrived at USC planning to study journalism.
Now, the first-generation college graduate is pursuing a career in medicine and researching maternal health disparities in South Carolina.

Today we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Henrie Monteith Treadwell, one of three students who desegregated the University of South Carolina in 1963. She died Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2026.
At just 16, she filed the lawsuit that opened Carolina’s doors. In 1965, she became the university’s first Black graduate since Reconstruction. Her courage changed this university forever, and every Gamecock since walks in her footsteps.
Thank you, Dr. Treadwell. Forever to thee.

Alyssa Lang knows ball.
And when she got to USC, she knew she wanted to pursue journalism. But she couldn't have imagined the journey that started in Columbia would lead her to some of the biggest stages in sports.

The state of the University of South Carolina is strong.
Don't just take our word for it. We caught up with students, faculty and staff at the annual State of the University address on the Horseshoe to ask them what they think of when they think about USC. ⤵️
