During Shift SC’s first semester in Fall 2021, it was just our little e-board working together to turn a vision into reality. We’ve now accepted our first ever cohort of students and have lots of exciting stuff planned—just wait.

We like to have fun 🥳

More than anything, Shift is a group of students who care deeply about the intersection of people and technology and value friendships with others who feel the same.

Creating a sense of commraderie and genuine connection is what we aim for. By joining our first cohort and becoming a Shiftie, you too can join in on the inside jokes and attend John’s monthly Lorenzo bangers (BYOP). Trust us, you won’t want to miss them.

But we also get down to business 💻

Meet the e-board below! Each of us are passionate about human-centered and socially responsible technology for a slightly different reason, but we all come together under the umbrella of Shift SC to put on initiatives and build community in the area that matters to us most.
