Carolina Food Co. is the official dining service at the University of South Carolina! Carrie Kuecks joins Jennifer on the mic to share all things food, meal plans, special events and more!

Jennifer sits down with the Gamecock CommUnity Shop team, a program at South Carolina that provides holistic support to individuals experiencing basic needs insecurities. Learn how to use their services and and how you can support their mission during New Student Orientation!

Kayley Safley and Sean Smyth discuss the "small group mindset," and how New Student Orientation helps students navigate a large environment, make meaningful connections and, of course, find the place where they belong.

Closing out our Right Fit series, Jennifer sits down with the Veterans and Military Affairs team to discuss VA benefits, campus resources and important enrollment pieces for military-affiliated students.

In part two of our "The Right Fit" series, we are chatting with David DeWeil of Capstone Scholars and Paulia Williams of TRIO Programs to learn more about the Orientation experience for their respective programs.

We are diving into the customized experiences that make up New Student Orientation! It is no secret that no two students are alike. Because of this, our team looks for the moments where students and families can get the specific information they want, and find the right fit at USC. A lot of this work comes in handy with our specialized academic populations. This three-part series will share information on the Honors College, Capstone Scholars, TRIO Opportunity Scholars programs, as well as Veterans and Military Affairs and how they show up during your Orientation.

First up: The South Carolina Honors College!

Cpl. Mark Tevepaugh joins us on the mic to get us up to speed on how the University of South Carolina Police Department works 24/7 to keep our community safe.

Leena Holt (Parent and Family Programs) and Alison Leach Hughes (New Student Orientation) join us to discuss their experiences working with families and supporters, what they can expect during Orientation and what makes being a Gamecock family so special.
