Hi Bycity- You sound so much like my son who is a sophomore at SC and LOVES life there! He comes from a very diverse public high school- not affluent area… working and middle class. He never attended a football game in high school and is now a loyal Trojan fan. He is not an athlete, but works out regularly. He is bright and interested in the world, but is not an “academic intellectual.” He has a group of friends he socializes with and belongs to a couple of campus clubs, but does not drink alcohol. The friends that I have met are nice kids… bright, full of energy, and are not pretentious. I think SC offers something for everyone.

BTW- he is biracial- AA & white. He has a racially diverse group of friends and would probably tell you to relax and just be who you are. Good luck!
