Scenes from commencement of students dressed in graduation caps and gowns.

Commencement
Some milestones are more than cherished memories. A new chapter of tradition begins when you join our alumni family.
The president of the University of South Carolina presides over the official commencement ceremonies. Not only is each candidate recognized by name during the ceremony, graduates also are personally congratulated for their accomplishment by the dean of their college or school.
