Three individuals, including Mattie Jean Adams on the far left, are standing outside a brick building. They are dressed in high-neck blouses and hats. The image features a logo in the bottom right corner that includes "USC 225," a mark celebrating the 225th anniversary of the University of South Carolina.
In 1898, Newberry County native Mattie Jean Adams became the first woman to graduate from the University of South Carolina, then called South Carolina College.
More than a century later, generations of women have followed in her footsteps. #WHM #USC225
