In a sophisticated, democratic society, citizens must be literate, self-disciplined, and inquisitive. They must respect and enjoy critical thought and the search for truths. Therefore, the purpose of USC Union is to give the people of Union and surrounding counties an intellectual, social, cultural, and physical setting which challenges them to grow in many ways and to develop a desire for lifelong learning.
USC Union's primary purpose is to provide the first two years of a Liberal arts university education to about 500 traditional and nontraditional students and to confer the Associate in Arts and the Associate in Science degrees.
Through the USC campuses in Columbia and Spartanburg, USC Union also provides access to upper-division courses, for minorities, women, and older students, as well as for traditional students who wish to work toward and eventually receive baccalaureate degrees. Upper-division courses are taught both by USC Union faculty and by faculty from other USC colleges.
USC Union provides graduate courses and degrees through the USC Graduate Regional Studies program and the state's extensive telecommunications network.
