CLOSE

 

South Carolina State University President Thomas Elzey talks to the Tom Joyner Morning Show about the news of the potential closing of SC State amid financial troubles.

“We have long term debt like any other institution. So we have about $65M in debt. What they’re proposing to do is not practical. It will put our students future in jeopardy and it will diminish the degree of South Carolina State University.”

On what closing SC State would do to the accreditation:

“This will kill our accreditation. You can’t get student loans. It devalues the degree of our 30,000 alumni.”
