For the 16th time in 136 years and only the second time in the past 27 years, Clemson University’s Board of Trustees selected the next president of Clemson University. Following a national search, Kevin Guskiewicz was named president on May 27.

A neuroscientist and higher education leader, Guskiewicz previously served as president at Michigan State University and chancellor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Details regarding a start date are being finalized.

“I’ve known for many years how special Clemson University is, and I’m honored by the opportunity to build on the extraordinary tradition of excellence and to help lead the University into the future,” Guskiewicz said in a news release. “I look forward to engaging with students, faculty, staff, alumni and the many South Carolinians whose passion and support have shaped Clemson into one of the nation’s leading global public research universities. Together, we will build on Clemson’s strong foundation while advancing student success, academic excellence and the University’s land-grant mission of serving the people of South Carolina and beyond.”

In a specially called meeting, the Clemson University Board of Trustees selected Guskiewicz for the role. The search began in December and was assisted by Funk Associates.

“The search committee was overwhelmed with the robust and highly qualified candidates who expressed interest in leading our great university,” search committee Chair Cheri Phyfer said in the release. “Dr. Guskiewicz rose to the top of a remarkable list with his deep understanding not only of higher education on the national level, but familiarity with Clemson University and its land-grant mission.”

An internationally recognized researcher, Guskiewicz received the prestigious MacArthur Fellowship in 2011 for his pioneering work on the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of sport-related concussions. His research has influenced collegiate and professional football safety guidelines, and he has published more than 200 peer-reviewed papers while maintaining an active research portfolio. In 2013, Time magazine named him a Game Changer, one of 18 “innovators and problem-solvers that are inspiring change in America.”

e also represented both Michigan State and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill through leadership roles in national higher education, research and civic organizations.
A 2020 National Athletic Trainers’ Association Hall of Fame inductee, Guskiewicz earned a bachelor’s degree in athletic training from West Chester University, a master’s in exercise physiology/athletic training from the University of Pittsburgh and a doctorate in sports medicine from the University of Virginia.

“Kevin Guskiewicz comes to Clemson with extensive experience leading national universities coupled with a vision to guide Clemson into its next chapter,” Board of Trustees Chair Kim Wilkerson said in the release. “The entire Board of Trustees is excited to welcome Dr. Guskiewicz and continue to build upon Clemson’s 136 years of excellence and service to the citizens of this state.”

The committee engaged with 18 different stakeholder groups including the faculty and staff senates, student governments, affiliated organizations such as the Alumni Association, IPTAY, the Board of Visitors, Clemson University Foundation, Clemson University Research Foundation and community representatives — among others, the release stated.

“I want to express my sincere appreciation to Trustee Phyfer and the search committee for their dedicated service throughout this process,” Wilkerson said. “Their thoughtful leadership and commitment helped bring forward a visionary leader to shape Clemson’s future.”

Clemson University researchers says a new advanced material created by them and researchers in the Czech Republic could play a key role in helping computers think more like brains and then biodegrade under certain conditions at the end of its lifespan.
The trans-Atlantic research team created the material, a polymer they call pB6CC, and used it to build memristors, which are a type of electronic component, according to a news release.
PB6CC is based on carbazole, a type of organic chemical building block that is used in some electronics. What makes pB6CC unique is that it combines properties favorable for advanced computing with the potential to biodegrade under specific environmental conditions.

Researchers built pB6CC into memristors because such devices could help move computing beyond today’s conventional chips and toward systems that mimic how the brain processes information, the news release stated.

Those systems, known as spiking neural networks, show promise for reducing the energy needed to power artificial intelligence systems.

The memristors act like synapses, changing their response based on the timing and history of signals. In spiking neural networks, this lets the system strengthen or weaken connections over time and process information in short bursts, much like the brain, using less energy than conventional chips.

Stephen Foulger, the Greg-Graniteville Endowed Chair and Professor at Clemson, said the project underscores the often overlooked but increasingly important role that advanced materials play in shaping the future of computing.
“Advanced materials are at the crest of a wave of next-generation AI technologies,” he said in the release. “There are a lot of startups in Silicon Valley that are looking at alternative designs of chips. I’m not talking about just faster and better. I’m talking about completely different methodologies to process information and to encode information, like through spiking neural networks.”

One of the problems with conventional chips is that they contribute to the growing problem of electronic waste and have limited recycling options, Foulger said.

The memristors created from pB6CC could help address that problem. They could biodegrade because pB6CC can be broken down by specific bacteria, Foulger said.
Memristors would also have advantages over conventional chips in manufacturing, Foulger said. While conventional chips are made in complex fabrication plants, memristors could be manufactured much less expensively using printing techniques, he said.

Kyle Brinkman, chair of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Clemson, said the research reflects the university’s leadership in advanced materials.

“This kind of work shows how Clemson is at the forefront of creating materials with real-world application,” he said in the release. “I congratulate Dr. Foulger and his team on this achievement and the impact it could have on future computing technologies.”
Researchers described their work in a paper published in April in the journal Applied Electronic Materials.

The title of the paper is, “Toward a Hardware Spiking Neural Network: Learning and Adaptation with an Environmental Sustainable Polymer Memristor.”
Foulger served as corresponding author.

The University of South Carolina School of Medicine in Columbia is now officially named in honor of the late longtime trustee and surgeon Dr. Edward “Eddie” Floyd and his wife, Kay Floyd.

Announced May 22 at a private luncheon attended by members of the Floyd family, trustees and university leaders, the school is named the University of South Carolina Kay and C. Edward Floyd M.D. School of Medicine. The naming celebrates the Floyds’ decades-long service and philanthropic support of USC, which totals $30 million, according to the university. Their giving will fund scholarships for medical students and endowed faculty positions including surgery, neurosurgery, neurology, sports medicine and the basic science.

“This gift is particularly meaningful because it also honors two exceptional people who gave so much to the University of South Carolina and the Palmetto State, and in so many different ways, throughout their lives,” USC President Michael Amiridis said in a news release. “Through their generosity, they will continue to have a tremendous, far-reaching impact on the School of Medicine and the entire University of South Carolina.”

The Floyds were married for 66 years. The naming honors their shared lifelong commitment to education, health care and public service, the news release stated.

Edward Floyd, who passed away in January at age 91, was the longest-serving member in the history of USC’s Board of Trustees, from 1982 to 2024. A former board chair (1992–1996), Floyd earned his undergraduate degree in business from USC in 1956 and was a fourth-generation alumnus of the university.

Born in Lake City, and a longtime resident of Florence, he built a career as a general and vascular surgeon after completing medical school in Charleston and his residency at the LSU School of Medicine in New Orleans. He established his medical practice in Florence, where he became known for his pioneering work in vascular surgery.

Beyond medicine, he was also a farmer and a prominent Republican fundraiser in South Carolina.

Kay Baker Floyd, who passed away in 2023, was born in Timmonsville. She graduated from Saint Mary’s College in Raleigh and the University of South Carolina. She managed one of the largest farming operations in the state and served as business manager for one of South Carolina’s first vascular laboratories.

Her civic contributions were widely recognized, including the naming of the Floyd Conference Center in Florence. She was also a founding member of Arts Alive at Francis Marion University.

In 2024, the Floyds’ daughter, Dr. Coleman Floyd Buckhouse, succeeded her father as a member of the university’s Board of Trustees.

“My parents loved this university with all of their hearts,” Buckhouse said in the release. “They believed deeply in improving lives and expanding opportunity. The USC School of Medicine Columbia has served South Carolina through education, discovery and care, and those same values guided my parents. By naming the School of Medicine, we are honoring their highest ideals and lasting commitment to this university and to the people of South Carolina.”

South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster, who attended the luncheon, also praised the Floyds’ history of service.

“The Floyds represented the very best of South Carolina, with lives defined by service to others and a deep commitment to improving their community,” McMaster said. “By naming the University of South Carolina School of Medicine in their honor, we carry their legacy forward in every physician who trains here and serves the people of this state.”

Founded in 1977, the Floyd School of Medicine is dedicated to educating the next generation of health care providers to serve communities across the state and beyond. More than 750 students are currently enrolled. Construction of a  300,000-plus-square-foot medical education and research facility is underway at Columbia’s BullStreet district, home to USC’s developing 16-acre Health Sciences Campus.

“This transformational gift from the Floyd family will have a profound impact on the educational experience of our students and provide boundless opportunities for our esteemed faculty and our school’s research endeavors,” interim School of Medicine Dean Dr. Gerald Harmon said in the release. “The Floyd’s legacy of service and devotion will live on through generations of health care professionals and scientists for our great state.”

With the naming, the school becomes the sixth named school or college at USC, and the fourth in the past three years, the release said.

The future of South Carolina’s business leaders of tomorrow looks brighter than it’s ever been. At least that’s the humble opinion of Charleston County School District Superintendent Anita Huggins.

Huggins spoke at a May meeting of the Charleston Metro Chamber in downtown Charleston. She shared insights on CCSD’s continued progress and the vision guiding its next chapter. From student readiness to innovation across schools, the conversation explored how the district is evolving to meet the needs of a growing community and prepare students for what comes next.

During Huggins’ short time in the superintendency, since January 2024, she has made bold decisions that have fortified schools and led to student achievement, unprecedented teacher retention (90%) and compensation, and all-time highs in graduation rate (90.6%) and college and career readiness (84.8%). Charleston County outperforms the state in the percentage of schools rated “Good” or “Excellent” (62%) compared to 49% statewide and equity gains are becoming evident across poverty levels, according to the South Carolina Department of Education.

“Our progress is real, and it’s widespread, but it’s not yet universal,” Huggins said. “We are committed to ensuring that every child in every Charleston County school has access to the high-quality teaching and learning they deserve.”

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, CCSD has boasted the largest state test improvement among the Council of the Great City Schools, according to the Education Recovery Scorecard from researchers at Harvard University and Stanford University. CCSD high schools overall continue to outperform the state in college and career readiness, with record participation and success in dual credit, advanced placement and industry certification programs.

Since 2020, CCSD’s college/career readiness has drastically improved from 69.1% to 84.8%. This progress is due to the district increasing career and technical education enrollment by more than 50% in recent years, with thousands of students participating in advanced coursework in engineering, information technology, health sciences, media, construction, welding and mechatronics. CCSD also has expanded internship opportunities, allowing students to earn work-based learning credit while gaining professional experience in real-world settings.

“Our students and educators continue to show what steady, focused effort can achieve,” Huggins continued. “… We are encouraged, but we’re not done. Our commitment is to keep pushing forward until all schools in Charleston County reach the highest levels of performance.”

Huggins noted that 9th grade is “too late” for students to be preparing for college or the workforce. The district’s end goal is to bridge the 15.2% of students that are neither college nor career ready and have no educational or workforce plans beyond high school.

“We can only be as good as the weakest student that leaves our system,” Huggins added. “When we realize that as a community, we become better.”

Budget priorities for 2026-27 include universal pre-K, special education expansion, employee daycare and teacher compensation. CCSD leads the nation among non-unionized states with a starting teacher salary of $67,000.

Furman University President Elizabeth Davis announced today that the 2026–27 academic year will be her final year as the university’s 12th president.

The announcement comes as Furman celebrates its bicentennial year, with festivities continuing through Homecoming this October as the university enters its third century.

According to a university announcement, Davis’ presidency has transformed the institution’s academic model, financial foundation and national standing. Davis shared her decision with the Board of Trustees on May 16 and notified the campus community in a message earlier this morning, May 18.

Davis will continue to lead Furman through the upcoming academic year, providing continuity as the board of trustees conducts a national search for her successor.

In her message to the campus community, Davis described the role as “the opportunity of a lifetime” and reflected on what drew her to Furman from the start: the university’s focus on undergraduate students and the relationships between faculty, staff and students that she has watched transform lives throughout her presidency.

Speaking to the timing of her announcement, she wrote: “As we celebrate our 200th year and look toward our third century, it’s the right time to begin a leadership transition. Furman has never been stronger. We have a clear path forward with our strategic plan, FUture Focused, our anticipated largest incoming class in over a decade, and a community ready for what comes next.”

She closed the message with: “The world needs Furman University, and I’m convinced our third century will be the best yet.”

Davis became Furman’s first female president in 2014. Over the 12 years that followed, she led a series of initiatives that redefined what a Furman education means and secured the university’s standing among the nation’s leading liberal arts colleges, according to a news release:

The Furman Advantage, launched in 2016 as the university’s signature engaged-learning commitment, guarantees every student a personalized four-year pathway pairing classroom learning with research, internships, study away and community-engaged experiences, backed by sustained mentorship from faculty and staff. The Furman Advantage has received more than $78.9 million in support from The Duke Endowment.

Clearly Furman: the Campaign for Our Third Century, publicly launched in 2023 with an original goal of $426 million, has surpassed both that goal and a subsequent $476 million benchmark and is on track to conclude in June 2026 with more than $500 million. It will be one of the most successful campaigns ever completed by a liberal arts institution, according to the university.

Seeking Abraham, Furman’s nationally recognized reckoning with its historical ties to slavery. Furman University says the program has set a standard among American universities for honest engagement with institutional history.

On Discourse, building on Furman’s Statement on Freedom of Inquiry and Expression, equips students to engage thoughtfully across difference, establishing the university as a place where, in Davis’s words, students “learn how to think, not what to think.”

FUture Focused, the university’s strategic plan, charts Furman’s path forward through academic distinction, student success and operational strength.

Under Davis’s leadership, Furman has risen in the U.S. News & World Report national liberal arts college rankings into the mid-40s and has been named a “Most Innovative School” for eight consecutive years. The university has also been recognized in the national top 20 for “Best First-Year Experience,” and Furman’s Pathways Program, the only two-year academic advising program of its kind in the country, received the 2024 Advising Innovation Award from NACADA, the global community for academic advising.

Davis has also led significant investment in the physical campus, including the construction of Blackwell Hall, a new first-year residence hall that opened in fall 2025, comprehensive renovations to additional first-year housing completed the same year, and a total reimagination of Timmons Arena, the university’s premier venue for basketball and entertainment. She has led Furman through its bicentennial year, a yearlong celebration culminating at Homecoming this October that marks 200 years since the university’s founding in 1826, and has navigated significant external challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic and Hurricane Helene.

Furman University Board of Trustees Chair Cindy Davis expressed the board’s gratitude and signaled confidence in Furman’s trajectory.

“Elizabeth has led Furman with vision, conviction and a deep love for this university and its people,” she said in the news release. “Over the past 12 years, she has strengthened every dimension of what makes Furman distinctive: our commitment to undergraduates, our engaged learning model, our financial foundation, and our standing among the nation’s leading liberal arts institutions. She has built on 200 years of bold leadership and added a chapter that will shape Furman for generations to come.”

“Just as important,” she continued, “Elizabeth is handing her successor a Furman that is ready for what’s next. With our largest incoming class in over a decade, a clear strategic plan in FUture Focused, and an engaged board and community, our momentum is real. The board will conduct a thorough, inclusive search for Furman’s next president, and we will do so from a position of strength.”

Researchers at Clemson University are rethinking cotton from the ground up.

What we wear carries an environmental cost long before clothing reaches a store shelf, the researchers say. From water-intensive dyeing to chemical processing and waste, the materials used in fashion have a major impact on natural resources. That’s what the researchers want to change.

With an $11 million grant from the Bezos Earth Fund, Clemson scientists led by Christopher Saski, systems geneticist and professor in the Clemson University Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences, will advance research aimed at creating cotton that performs better, uses fewer resources and opens new possibilities for growers, manufacturers and consumers.

“Clemson University is proud to be a part of shaping the future of global agriculture and the fashion industry through bold innovation and advancing groundbreaking research,” Robert H. Jones, Clemson University interim president, said in a news release. “Dr. Saski’s cutting-edge research in the fields of gene editing and synthetic biology has the potential to positively impact the lives of every person on our planet, which is a testament to the work we do every day at Clemson University and to fulfilling our unique land-grant mission of education, research and service.”

For South Carolina, where cotton remains an important part of the agricultural economy, the work could help strengthen a legacy crop while positioning the state at the forefront of sustainable textile innovation.

The project will combine gene editing, synthetic biology and advanced breeding to develop next-generation cotton with built-in color, improved performance and greater resilience. Instead of adding those traits later through resource-intensive manufacturing, researchers are designing them directly into the plant, the release stated.
The approach could reduce water use, lower chemical inputs and create fibers better suited for modern manufacturing. It could also help growers by increasing the value and versatility of cotton in a rapidly changing global market.

Collaborators from the University of Georgia are also part of the team. The project builds on Clemson’s advances in cotton transformation and eco-friendly fiber coloring.
“This work focuses on growing fibers that are inherently better for the planet by moving color, performance and resilience into the biology of cotton itself,” Saski said in the release. “This approach flips the traditional model that has been used for more than a century to build a future of sustainable fashion, and we’re excited to have support from the Bezos Earth Fund to help us move this research forward and further.”

The Bezos Earth Fund is investing in new approaches to the materials used in clothing, an industry with a significant environmental footprint, including greenhouse gas emissions, water use, pollution and waste. Clemson researchers say addressing those challenges starts with rethinking how fibers are grown and produced.

For the Clemson team, the grant represents an opportunity to turn scientific discovery into practical solutions with impact beyond the lab. From South Carolina farms to global supply chains, the work could help shape a more sustainable future for one of the world’s most widely used natural fibers, the researchers said.

The Duke Endowment and the Medical University of South Carolina have partnered to form an initiative across North and South Carolina to strengthen maternal and infant health outcomes.

The pair will expand MUSC’s HEAR 4 Mamas and Babies program to additional health systems. HEAR means “healing, equity, advocacy and respect.”

Using text messaging and phone outreach, HEAR 4 Mamas and Babies is an evidence-informed screening and a referral program which helps identify medical, behavioral health and social needs from early in the pregnancy until the following year of postpartum.

“We are thrilled to launch this initiative in partnership with MUSC, UNC-Chapel Hill and five health systems,” Jay Kennedy, senior program officer with The Duke Endowment’s Health Care program area, said in the release. “Our aim is to work together to replicate and scale this program in hopes of improving health outcomes for more women and infants across the Carolinas.”

The Duke Endowment allocated more than $13 million to the initiative, $8 million intended to support five health systems implementing HEAR 4 Mamas and Babies over the next four years. The release said participating health care systems will be Cape Fear Valley Health System, ECU Health, Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist, Prisma Health and Spartanburg Regional Healthcare System.

The other $5.3 million will be to establish a Technical Assistance and Training Center that is led by MUSC and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the release said. The center will provide training, technology, cross-site evaluation and data resources in addition to partnering with state agencies, Medicaid programs and private payers for long-term reimbursement plans.

“H4MAB was created to address the many gaps in maternal and infant health care by ensuring that individual concerns are heard and medical, behavioral health and social needs are proactively addressed by a trusted care team throughout pregnancy and the postpartum year,” Dr. Constance Guille said in the release. Guille is the training center director, H4MAB principal investigator and professor in MUSC’s Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. “With The Duke Endowment’s support, we now have the opportunity to bring this model to scale and improve outcomes for families across the Carolinas.”

According to the release, the model has demonstrated improvement in detection and treatment of mental health such as maternal depression and anxiety, substance use disorders, chronic health conditions, intimate partner violence and unmet social determinants of health needs.

The program has also helped reduce disparities across maternal and infant health care, connecting patients with personalized support.

“We are honored to partner in this important endeavor,” Sarah Verbiest, director of the Jordan Institute for Families at the UNC School of Social Work, said in the release. “By bringing together MUSC’s expertise, the H4MAB program, our experience implementing innovation in communities and The Duke Endowment’s sustained investment in maternal and child health, we believe this initiative has the potential to mitigate risk factors that lead to poor maternal and infant health outcomes, such as postpartum depression, while ensuring families across North Carolina and South Carolina receive the timely support they need to thrive.”
