Do you even understand what you posted?
I think you were trying to show Moore disparaging USC, but forgot to even read the article yourself. It clearly shows that her remark was NOT aimed at USC, but at the state of South Carolina itself, and how poorly prepared the state economy was for graduates of the USC business school that bears her name to find quality skilled jobs in-state that would let them put their shiny new business degrees to use.
And she wasn't wrong. This was in 2012, and it would be just as accurate if it was in 2002, 1992, 1982. And sadly, it would still have merit if it was made in 2022.
But there were a LOT of action that were initiated from the same position that Moore and other state academic institutional leaders took regarding skill-based training in-state and the development and cultivation of a skilled higher-industrial state economy to provide jobs for the trained.
The article references Trident Tech for one - my own local Horry-Georgetown Technical College initiated a program from the South Carolina Manfuacturing Certification (SCMC) program partnered with the Manufacturing Skilled Standards Council (MSSC) back in 2013 to give course certifications for Certified Production Technician (CPT) training. This was training for real factory manufacturing skills like used at BMW and Boeing plants in SC. They taught OSHA, Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt, safety and quality control practices and measurement, manufacturing processes and production, etc.
Most of this came out of the same thought processes and concerns that Darla Moore spoke about at what was largely a self-back-patting function of the Charleston tourism and business leadership for winning some tourism award from some magazine. She wasn't there to feed her own "Diva" ego. She was there to try to crack the whip on the state moving forward with its economy into the 21st century.
Has Caslen given any speeches of this kind about the State's future?? Has Caslen given any speeches?
