U.S. Rep. James E. Clyburn sees South Carolina State University building momentum in research and creating opportunities for students, and the loyal alumnus says he is committed to helping the university build on that progress.

Clyburn said his support for SC State is rooted in his belief in the opportunities the university provides students who might not otherwise have them.

“My father was denied a high school education in this state. He grew up in Kershaw County not able to go to high school because the state of South Carolina did not provide high school for Blacks beyond the seventh grade in his county. That’s what keeps me moving every day,” Clyburn said.

South Carolina State University’s new $50 million freshman residence hall is beginning to take shape as crews raise massive concrete wall panels into place, marking a major construction milestone for the five-story facility.

SC State President Alexander Conyers said the milestone reflects the advantages of a construction method designed to accelerate the project while maintaining the building’s structural integrity.

“I'm very excited that this process allows the university to receive the finished product in a faster time,” Conyers said. “It expedites the process while there are no shortcuts on safety or durability of the building.”

The accelerated but structurally sound construction method is expected to allow SC State freshmen to occupy the new residence hall in fall 2027.
