Next Stop: Fall Semester!

From classrooms and campus events to new experiences and future goals, there's a place for every path at SJR State! Priority registration for the fall semester is happening now, and open registration begins May 28.

Congrats, Class of 2026!

Earlier this month, we celebrated our newest Viking grads at our spring commencement ceremonies! We're proud of all they accomplished during their time at SJR State and can't wait to see what's next!

America 250

This year marks 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and SJR State has celebrated America 250 through events and activities across our campuses. As more events continue throughout the summer, each campus will host a 4th of July celebration while also honoring the significance of Memorial Day and those who served.

Off to Ireland!

Our students began their study abroad trip last week, taking learning beyond the classroom and across the world. They will travel to Dublin, Westport, Galway, and Dingle and visit many sites relevant to Ireland's history and literature. Check our social media channels for a recap post soon!

Club Highlights

The Earth Club celebrated Earth Day by hosting a build-your-own terrarium event, giving students the chance to be creative and learn about the environment.

The Student Government Association wrapped up the spring term by attending the FCSSGA end-of-year conference.

The Sunshine Service Scholars closed out the semester with a bake sale benefiting outreach and charitable initiatives.

Share your club activity photos with StratComm@sjrstate.edu to be featured in the newsletters!

Good luck, Lady Vikings!

The Lady Vikings are returning to the national stage! After claiming the state and district titles for the third straight year, SJR State softball is heading back to Spartanburg, South Carolina, May 19-24, to compete in the NJCAA DII Softball World Series. Game one is Wednesday, May 20 at 1:30 p.m. Congratulations to the team on another incredible season!

Student Support Ombuds

Hunger shouldn’t be part of the college experience, and thanks to the Viking Exchange, our campus food pantry, it doesn’t have to be.


We’re working hard to keep our shelves full for every student. Help us keep the pantry stocked by scanning the QR code. Responses are anonymous.

Take care of your mind with free support! SJR State students have access to BetterMynd, a free mental health counseling resource. Services include:

  • Limited individual virtual counseling sessions - Students must meet with an Ombuds first to access these sessions.
  • Unlimited live workshops - No Ombuds meeting required. Visit bettermynd.com to join.
  • 24/7 crisis support - Call the hotline any time, day or night.

BetterMynd makes it easy to get support when you need it, whether you want to attend a workshop, speak with a counselor, or access help during a crisis.
