Student Media at the University of South Carolina houses four student-run media outlets on campus: The Daily Gamecock, Garnet & Black, SGTV and WUSC-FM. Each offers students real-world experience in print, digital broadcast, advertising and graphic design, as well as the opportunity to plug-in at the heart of campus and the student body.

All students, regardless of year or major, are invited to join one, or all four, of the media groups. Each student’s time in the newsroom, behind the mic, or in design builds the experience and skill set for internships and jobs after graduation.

TESTIMONIALS

“We were looking for more reach with our social media, not only to the students on campus but also other offices within USC so we could build more relationships across campus. Our reach more than tripled this past year. We could not have done this without Student Media!”

Dan SarantopolusOwner, Columbia Charlotte Shuttle

Sydney BotelhoAdvisor/Program Coordiantor, Office of Pre-Professional Advising

“There is simply no more effective way to reach the USC Columbia demographic than through Student Media, and our continual, consistent growth as a company is in large part a function of that effectiveness.”

Off-Campus Housing Guide

Year in Review

The Welcome Back issues publish at the beginning of each semester and gives advertisers an opportunity to introduce their business, product or service to a new batch of incoming first-year students as well as returning students, faculty and staff. The first issue of the fall semester publishes the day before move-in and stays on the racks until the first day of class (a shelf life of six days).

Football is king at Carolina and the countdown for next season begins at the bowl game. The Daily Gamecock’s special football issue previews the top rivalries, players to watch and the season ahead, serving as the go-to guide for students, faculty and staff at the university. Get your message out to the Gamecock faithful!

Parents are in town and students are scrambling to schedule a weekend full of dinners, city shopping and nights on the town. Reach out to students and their parents with special deals and events fit for a family weekend, with an extra readership over 6,000 visiting family members.

As the fall semester comes to a close be sure not to miss out on our popular Semester Spotlight. This special edition takes a look back at some of the great Carolina moments of fall semester. Published on the last day of class, Semester Spotlight has an extended shelf life and is a great way to reach students before the holidays.

Now in our sixth year, we expect even more students to vote for their favorite Columbia establishments. Winners are announced in this highly anticipated special issue.

Our annual Off-Campus Housing Guide is a wealth of information that gives students everything they need to know about moving off campus. When students are researching where to live make sure your property is in the guide they go to.

It’s the end of another school year and graduates and soon-to-be sophomores alike are looking longingly to the finish line. This issue publishes on the last day of class and offers a break from the books and gives students a nice momento of their year at Carolina.

As a Gamecock, my determination has No Limits.Justin Dunham, Alumnus

sc.edu/nolimits

Justin Dunham is always moving. A former high school athlete, he’s conditioned to make quick turns, think on his feet and motivate. His determination permeates the Earth Science classroom and his students. They jump at the chance to share their new knowledge of climate conditions, ocean tides and seismic waves. “I leave nothing on the table,” says the USC grad. “If I’m not tired at the end of the day, then I didn’t do enough.” It’s his energy that keeps the eighth-graders on their toes, because they know Justin will never sit down on the job.
