University of South Carolina-Columbia (USC) Campus

Willy B is the BEST stadium because of how huge it is! Unfortunately it's about a mile off campus but there are free shuttles to get you there! Our football fans are so intense and it creates such an amazing atmosphere in the seats.

The Fountain sits right in front of the Thomas Cooper library. There are benches around it to sit and relax, like many students do!

Strom is the newer of the two gyms on campus, and the more popular building because of that. It's so huge! The hours are 6am to 12am which gives you a lot of options. There is even an outdoor pool!

Booker T Washington is where I have my theater classes and I love the historic photographs that are all over the walls. Most Theater majors hang out here so I can meet them even if we don't have class. McMaster is the Visual Art and Design school so that's where I have all of my Media Arts classes. It's sort of far from the central parts of campus but the walk is worth it.

A day in my life as a student at UofSC

The only lab that I have access to is our computer lab for the art school but this video explains it's uses and those of a science lab as well.

Thomas Cooper Library is nice place to study but it does get insanely crowded during finals week and there is minimal parking close by which is frustrating for those of us who don't live on campus. I suggest renting study rooms in advance if you need a quiet space.

Blatt is our smaller and older gym on campus. It's less popular because of that (I barely ever go in it) but it's a great place to work out if you're on that side of campus. Blatt and our other gym Strom are about a 10 minute walk from each other.

Here I show you what my theater classrooms and history/english classrooms look like! Theater classes are normally very small while the others are usually 20-30 students. I like choosing classes with this size because I feel I can get to know the faculty more, but they always hold office hours where you can just drop by. Not every class at a huge school has a huge amount of students!

One "bucket list" item to do at U of SC is to watch the sunset on the top of Horizon parking garage. Unfortunately it was cloudy when I took videos, but from the months of May to November, it's sunny almost every day, giving us the most beautiful sunsets. The garage is in walking distance of many things on campus, including the library!

The Horseshoe is one of the prettiest places on campus. The campus is in the city but this part reminds you of a more rural campus, so you get the best of both worlds. South Carolina oftentimes has nice sunny weather, and this area of campus is an easy place to enjoy it.

Gambrell and Humanities are right next to each other and have a lot of foot traffic in and around them. Humanities also has a Starbucks that takes meal plan money! I've had english, history of film and media studies, and spanish class in these two buildings so I spend a lot of time in the area.

This landmark is one that a lot of my friends don't even know about so you're getting the inside scoop! This area is perfect for a quiet place with some privacy which can be hard to find at such a large school. I like studying or watching Netflix here.
