    TOP SCHOLARS 2014-2015 Annual Report of Stamps Carolina, Carolina, McNair, Hamilton and Horseshoe Scholars University of South Carolina Cover: McNair Scholar Viki Knapp enjoyed bathing an elephant in Jaipur, India. It was just one of many stops she made during her Semester at Sea voyage. Along with several hundred other students from around the country, Viki circumnavigated the globe and visited 14 countries, all while taking a full semester of classes. Each August, exceptional Carolina, Stamps Carolina, McNair, Hamilton and Horseshoe scholars converge upon the University of South Carolina’s historic campus to begin the academic year anew. They come from the Atlantic and the Pacific coasts, from America’s heartland and right next door. They have earned these highly compet - itive scholarships based on outstanding academic talent, exemplary character and remarkable leadership skills. It’s not unusual for our first-year scholars to experience some anxiety as they move from comfort to self-exploration. This is as it should be. Philosopher Soren Kierkegaard wrote, “It is in our anxiety that we come to understand feelingly that we are free, that the possibilities are endless.” In this edition of Top Scholars it’s clear, as the years move forward, these students experience an exhilarating freedom as they seek out and explore each new possibility. Mentored by members of Carolina’s experienced faculty and sta, supported by community and business leaders, alumni and donors, inspired by their peers and touched by the needs of communities both here and abroad, our top scholars become global citizens. Their exploration has found them among the people of Chile, Turkey, Spain and Italy.
