An exciting event will be taking place near USC Upstate on Thursday, April 17th at 7:00pm at the Chapman Cultural Center in Downtown Spartanburg. The address of the Chapman Cultural Center is 200 E. St. John St. Spartanburg, SC.
With a history of renowned speakers, 2025 is no different. A columnist for The New York Times, Maureen Dowd will be the Keynote Speaker. She won the Pulitzer Prize in 1999 for her coverage of the Bill Clinton-Monica Lewinsky Scandal.

This year, the Chancellor, faculty, staff, and students of USC Upstate are honored to have Pulitzer Prize-winning Journalist Maureen Dowd providing a thought-provoking conversation about today’s political climate and her latest book, Notorious.”
