Or you could just have one thread for the Upstate.... Just a suggestion. I would think there is enough activity in Anderson and Rock Hill to warrant that. But I am a newbie!

On the Winthrop website, the overal rating for Winthrop has been #1 for the past 3 years. This past year Clemson was #2. Sorry didn't know you guys did not like Wiki! I just saw this entire thread no one mentioned Winthrop at all, it is a really good school as you can see with #1 overall performance in the state, just thought I would share.

Winthrop Alum here as well;)

According to the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education, Winthrop University was named the top ranked University in the state according to evaulations done this past year. Clemson was 2nd. I believe this has been put on Winthrops wikipedia page as well and all over there website. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winthrop_University As well as 8th public university in the SouthEast by US News and World Report. Great pub for Winthrop.

That's the same thing I was wondering about Rock Hill considering the amount of projects and the large growth.
