University Archivist, University of South Carolina. I know where the bones are (literally) buried on campus.

It's #collegecolorsday! Did you know we were the garnet and black before we were the gamecocks? The university colors were chosen in the late 1800s; we became the #gamecocks in 1902. This image is a sticker from the 1930s. #Archives @sc.edu @uofsclibraries.bsky.social

Drawing of a gamecock with a sash that says "U.S.C." South Carolina Gamecocks is at the bottom of the image.

Hey #gamecocks, can you recognize your campus? There are some major buildings missing from this 1940 aerial photo of @sc.edu @uofscalumni.bsky.social @uofscstudents.bsky.social

It's a beautiful day for a stroll through history on the Horseshoe, our original campus. Meet at noon in front of the South Caroliniana Library for a fun and informative tour through "The Good, the Bad, and the Naked of USC History." @uofsclibraries.bsky.social @uofscalumni.bsky.social

This sunny day is a great time to see the campus sundial in action. It will be an hour off as of Sunday - sundials don't follow Daylight Savings Time. The ODK sundial garden is near Rutledge. @uofsclibraries.bsky.social @sc.edu More info: www.facebook.com/share/p/168n...
