" USC Upstate has come a long way since their beginnings, I believe they have made and continue to make strides to improve their image and quality as they’ve experienced a recent influx of student enrollment and admittance. To really get the full experience you really have to go out of your way to join clubs or make yourself known to faculty/campus. Which can be difficult for introverted individuals/graduate students/ off campus students. Otherwise noticeable efforts are being made to improve other areas food quality, safety, housing etc. "
