- Encourage the growth and continuation of the professional/career-oriented goals and aspects of the society in members
"Serving as an exec for UofSC SHRM provided me with ample opportunities to engage with both peers interested in HR, as well as local professionals through Columbia’s local SHRM chapter. This is what I enjoyed most. As someone who was transitioning into a new career, it was important for me to get exposure to the field through diverse experiences such as speakers, workshops, plant tours, and volunteer events." - Jewel May, MHR '18
"Being part of SHRM has allowed me to engage in many activities within Columbia, connect with local HR professionals, and build relationships with other students. It is a great opportunity to network and get involved in the community.” - Emily Weaver, MHR '13
"The SHRM Student Chapter at South Carolina has created strong relationships to local HR professionals. It is a great opportunity to visit companies but also give back to the Columbia community." - Andy Mayer, MHR '13
