Under the direction of Harold A. White, the USC Athletic Enrichment Center provides student-athletes with quality and personal guidance during their collegiate career. The center has three large computer labs with laser printers available for student-athletes' use. The computer labs are updated with the most modern software appropriate for students' courses and continued skill development. Academic Counselor Melissa Dawson talks with student-athletes about their class schedules and tutoring sessions. All student-athletes are provided with a tutor in each subject.
Tutors conduct review sessions prior to mid-terms and final exams.
USC conducts sessions with its new student-athletes prior to the start of classes to introduce them to the services and people who will help them achieve success. USC's community service program is designed for student-athletes to give back to the Columbia area. This is accomplished through community service with local charities, children's groups and public appearances at hospitals. Earning a degree and playing major college basketball are opportunities of a lifetime offered at the University of South Carolina. It is that pursuit of excellence in academic and athletics that is the main goal for all student-athletes.
