A USC day of celebration: Spring commencement
More than 4,800 students from the Columbia campus received their degrees at the University of South Carolina’s spring commencement ceremonies May 6-7.
School of Law
The University of South Carolina School of Law commencement ceremonies held a big surprise Friday (May 6) for graduates and their families, and it wasn’t the rain: U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor joined university officials and commencement speaker Sen. Lindsey Graham on the platform at the university’s historic Horseshoe.
Graham and Justice Sotomayor addressed the 209 graduates.
A graduate of USC’s law school, Graham encouraged law graduates to slow down and consider the moment when practicing law and helping a client.
