Abstract
With a few exceptions, since 1896 the state of South Carolina has provided lower levels of
financial support to public institutions of higher education than other states, both regionally and
nationally. While South Carolina went from spending the least to the most on higher education by
the mid-1970s, it has fallen back toward the middle among southern states although it still
remains above regional and national averages. Longitudinal studies such as this provide an opportunity to look for patterns in the data and historical record, and to assess the impact of decisions made many decades ago on
contemporary conditions and circumstance.
