Happy Holiday!

Not only do I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas, Joyful Season, and Happy New Year but also I want to congratulate our cohort students who will receive their MLIS on December 13.  :)

Some began the program fall, 2007; others came on board during 2008; more enter each semester. The program design is for 4 years; however, many finish in 2 or 2 1/2 years. All classes are distance education courses yet students do not feel alone. There is a strong sense of connection between professors and students.

Classes are both synchronous and asynchronous. No cohort student is required to come to campus but for one's personal enrichment, at least one trip to USC Columbia helps create a sense of place.

As several cohort students enter their chosen professional track, there are others out there considering a school for that all important Masters. Let that school be the School of Library and Information Science at the University of South Carolina!
