South Carolina begins Williams-Brice renovation work in days after Clemson game
The Administrative Employees Club at the University of South Carolina.
The AEC was organized over forty years ago to reflect the "esprit de corps" among the administrative employees of the University of South Carolina. While primarily a social organization, the AEC fosters the spirit of enthusiasm and sense of commitment among its members that makes a positive contribution to the overall environment of the University.

Abe’s nominator said this, “Abe was so helpful to us this summer from serving on an OYT search committee, writing a piece on OYT, designing a flyer for our senior citizen orientation, and always offering helpful advice for many UofSC Communication questions. Our staff often comments on Abe’s kind and generous nature.”
Congratulations, Abe! 🏆

The Gamecocks' long-awaited season opener is this Saturday against Tennessee, and YES, the lounge will be open! However, just like with everything else this year, it's going to look different. Our occupancy will be limited to 25 guests at a time. We will not be serving food, but we will have bottles of water. There is no entry fee this year-- just bring a smile and enjoy AEC camaraderie!
