STUDENT LIFE CAMPUS RECREATION We opened the new $1.8 million intramural complex and are currently working on a fire pit project to create a grand entrance to the complex. This will be the highlight of prospective student tours! Estimated completion time is end of the fall semester.
CAMPUS SECURITY CSU consistently ranks as not only one of the safest colleges or universities in the United States, currently ranked No. 252 of 1,310 institutions, but also No. 3 of 24 in the state of South Carolina. Campus Security recently added Rapidwarn software to our Buc Alert system. This software automatically sends any National Weather Service warnings for the campus to everyone enrolled on the Buc Alert list as well as the campus outdoor warning sirens and will provide a quicker warning in case of severe weather.
THE CAREER CENTER The Career Center saw the return of in-person on-campus recruitment post-Covid through Career Chats in the fall and four major-specific Career Expos in the spring. We welcomed over 120 employers to campus to speak with and recruit our students. With renewed focus on professionalism and equal opportunity, the Career Center committed to growing offerings for its career closet that will serve students who may lack the means to obtain professional clothing for interviews, internships, and presentations. Through a persistent social media campaign and targeted messaging to alumni, faculty, and staff, the options for students have grown exponentially. The students even contributed to naming the closet Suited to Sail, and the closet will hopefully be available for them to shop starting in the fall. We are continuing to accept any and all professional wear donations, including ties, jewelry, and shoes.
