School History
The University was founded as South Carolina College on December 19, 1801, by an act of the General Assembly initiated by Governor John Drayton in an effort to promote harmony between the Lowcountry and the Backcountry. The first president was the Baptist minister Reverend Jonathan Maxcy. Maxcy's tenure lasted from 1804 through 1820.
The College became a symbol of the South in the antebellum period as its graduates were on the forefront of secession from the Union. During the post Civil War period, the institution underwent several reorganizations. In 1957, the University expanded its reach through the University of South Carolina System, a group of seven satellite campuses established around the state in addition to the flagship school in Columbia.
