Back in the 1970s, studying at MUSC meant carrying stacks of books to the library and finding a spot at a crowded table.

Today, students tuck into cozy spots across campus, working on laptops and connecting through Wi-Fi. The tools have changed, but the energy is still the same.

Learning at MUSC has always been about coming together, whether it’s across a table or through a screen.
