The Charlotte Chapter of South Carolina State University National Alumni Association was started in 1965. Dr. T. J. Crawford, Professor at South Carolina State College and an officer in the Alumni Association, met with the group of about ten area Alumni about forming a chapter. The group became the nucleus for the chapter. They held monthly meetings at each other homes. From the very beginning, the Charlotte Chapter has been at the forefront in supporting the University. In the early years, though few in numbers, the Chapter supported the National Alumni initiatives and the University Scholarship Funds. The Charlotte Chapter has donated more than $500,000 in scholarship funds in its 59-year history. From the ranks of the Chapter have come a National Alumni President, a National Secretary, a National Vice President, a National Chaplain and several National Committee Chairpersons.
