Dear USC Family,
As we begin the 2024/2025 academic year, I am filled with excitement and gratitude. This year holds special significance as we prepare to launch our centennial celebrations, looking ahead to USC’s 100th anniversary in 2027. We stand at a unique crossroads—reflecting on our remarkable journey through Miracle Valley while eagerly anticipating the bright future we continue to build together. This newsletter is not just a chronicle of our milestones, but a celebration of our shared faith, perseverance, and the many bright futures we are shaping together.
In this season, we honor the visionary leaders, dedicated faculty and staff, and brilliant students who have carried USC’s banner high. Yet, as we look back, we are even more excited about what lies ahead. The road to our centenary is paved with promise, as we continue to forge new paths, inspire innovation, and nurture the boundless potential in every member of our community.
To our new students, welcome to the USC family! You are now part of a legacy that stretches back nearly a century, and we are thrilled to walk with you on this journey toward your graduation in 2028. To our returning students, welcome back! Your continued diligence and passion are the heart of this university, and we look forward to supporting you as you press on toward your academic aspirations.
To our devoted faculty and staff, thank you for your unwavering commitment. Your hard work and dedication fuel the spirit of excellence that defines USC. We aren’t just teaching lessons, we are molding lives, empowering our students to be extraordinary servants of God to humanity through cultural diversity, moral integrity, intellectual curiosity, and spiritual nurture.
I also express deep gratitude to our alumni, friends, and supporters. Your steadfast support strengthens our foundation, and keeps our mission alive and thriving. As we look ahead to USC’s next 100 years, your partnership remains invaluable.
Let’s embark on this new academic year with faith and purpose, knowing that we are part of something truly exceptional. Together, we are building a legacy that reaches far beyond the classroom—into the hearts, minds, and lives of all we touch.
Yours in Service & Excellence,
Dr. Colwick M. Wilson
