2012 About the SSC

The Southern Short Course in News Photography is America's longest running photojournalism seminar. Originally founded by the Carolinas Press Photographers Association, the SSC is now a non-profit independent organization. With its outstanding faculty, the SSC's sole purpose is to provide educational programs for students and photojournalists. Even though the word "southern" is in the name, the competition has no geographic limits and is open to anyone, student or professional.
