Kicking the Bulldogs Out the Cage !


Kicking the Bulldog Out the Cage



Orangeburg, SC – South Carolina State University might be on their way to expansion. As we all know living on campus gives you the full college experience. What if campus was packed to capacity and no more housing was available?



It used to be that students with this issue would move into school housing off campus. Which one option would’ve been Campus Corner- an apartment building occupied with half SC State students and the other half Claflin students. The apartment offered its own kitchen and living room area with a bedroom that led to a co-share bathroom. Campus Corner plummeted when it came to local reviews. Whether it be the constant harassment about rent money or the unsafe feeling due to roaming locals.



Claflin University decided to rent Campus Corner for a semester moving all their girl students in but sending SC State students packing. When news broke a source who wishes to remain anonymous stated, “It’s because the students have to much going on.” With almost two semesters passing and no word of trouble Campus Corner decided to sell to Claflin University.



Students and parents were shocked forced to find housing for students elsewhere and quick! However, this might’ve been a good thing because it’s now obvious that South Carolina State needs more housing for students. Which is now being built! So that students are comfortable. The university has decided to double up in some dorms on campus as of now. Students dislike the change and are hoping the dorms being built will be finished anytime soon.



Claflin has since placed gates on the outside of the Campus Corner building. After 2017 CC shooting by a fellow Claflin student school officials guarantee safety and control.

JJ's Introduction !

 Allow me to reintroduce myself ! My name is JJ Brown well that's what I like to go by I am a student here at South Carolina State University. Originally born in North Charleston a true 843 native. I am currently finishing up my junior year majoring in journalism. In the future when I do receive my degree I plan on writing for a media coverage company, but also getting into the world of radio. One interesting about me is that I also want to do stand up comedy. The entertainment of making other people laugh is something me and my people do on the daily. So sometimes we'll do a little stand up here and there. Also being from the south I'm a big food guy! I love to eat which is weird because I'm a picky eater, but if its chicken or cornbread you know an everyday thing you cant go wrong with that. The reason I chose to take up journalism is a funny story , previously I wanted to go into the medical field. Not doing so well in the biology classes, but making straight A...

Anything SHE can do can HE do better ?

North Charleston-- Do you just enjoy being around kids? wanting to work and help guide them through life. Welp! it's not going to happen if you're a man.  Recently in North Charleston two men were fired from their jobs due to the fact they were men. Shawn Beeble, 25 is the first victim to experience this unfortunate tragedy. Working at the Sunshine House Daycare Beeble truly connected with the students. Meanwhile, a fellow employee started a rumor causing Beeble to lose his job. When questioned management he was told, "You are not fired, but put on leave" and was never asked to return.  Mike Sawner, 27 was a teacher for Pre-K students at Minnie Hughe's Elementary in Hollywood, SC. Sawner kept his life private, but began to talk to fellow colleagues. Ending in Sawner being fired as well, being told that their were concerns with how he handles the kids.  Almost 77% to 80% of the Daycare workers in the US are women. While men fill up that little 20 - 22%...

Who you with !? Biden or Bernie ?

Biden and Bernie have been in the media's main eye lately due to the SC Primary election. These two might just be neck in neck not because they are both OG's in the politic game, but they've been catering to the African American community. Biden took the lead reportedly winning over 60% of the African American voters. Biden has really kicked it up a notch. Even travels with an African American team in which allows him to become relatable. Biden took the cake being named the most popular vote made by African Americans in Nevada. Make no mistake though ! Bernie is right behind him who we know for being one of our favorite American politicians. Sanders is reaching the African American community in a personal way walking the streets with our people. Even has African American supporters going door to door rallying others to side with Bernie. A North Charleston informant explained, "Bernie is the one who is actually going to make a change. He's genuine and we need hi...
