ORANGEBURG – Winnsboro Town Councilman Demetrius Chatman has been named to the inaugural South Carolina State University’s 40 Under 40.

“These 40 individuals are special because they are the first to be inducted into this inaugural class,” said Dr. Gwynth Nelson, associate vice president for institutional advancement. “They are industry leaders and community champions who represent the best of the university. We are proud to call them Bulldogs.”
The class will be honored during a virtual awards ceremony to be scheduled at a later date.
