The South Carolina Study Center

The South Carolina Study Center exists to promote the best of Christian thought in order to shape teachers and students to think, live, and lead with Christian wisdom.

Nearly everyone agrees on the value of education. But why is it a basic human good? And what is its ultimate goal? Our universities can no longer give confident or coherent answers. Meanwhile, dehumanizing ideologies are filling the void, learning is being instrumentalized for shallow ends, and important questions surrounding God and faith are belittled. The time is ripe for serious Christian thought to offer a better way and make a real difference.

The South Carolina Study Center is a hub of Christian community, hospitality, and learning at USC. Located right next to campus, it stands as a witness to a forgotten truth: Christ alone is the true light who gives light to everyone.

Testimonials

The study center has been a perfect blend of hospitality and discipleship for us. It's a physical place of hospitality for our students, but it's also an equally-needed space of an intellectually engaged Christianity that emboldens our students to witness and faith. I'm so grateful for their generosity to partner with campus groups like ours. - Matt McCrory, Intervarsity Christian Fellowship
