Brothers of Pi Kappa Phi are involved on campus with student clubs and organizations, intramural sports, community service and academic excellence. The South Carolina Beta Colony came into existence on August 12, 1998. Ten men took on the challenge and with the help of Josh Cohen, Manager of Extension, they made it a reality. The whole process began in November of 1997, when Wil Woodward and Nick Gregory decided they wanted to start a new fraternity at the University of South Carolina Spartanburg. The USCS Debate Team was formed in 1989 to provide students the opportunity to improve their research, reasoning and communication skills.
Students compete among themselves and with teams from other colleges and universities.
Interested students are encouraged to contact the Office of Student Life for additional information regarding participation and scholarship assistance. The USCS Gordon-Colloms Gospel Choir is open to any student interested in gospel music. The choir meets on a regular basis to rehearse and presents several performances each year. Students may earn academic credit by registering for SMUS 129. A number of scholarships are awarded each year by audition.
