Why does the ACC History page state that South Carolina was one of the 7 charter members and participated in the crafting of the by-laws at the Sedgefield Inn in Greensboro on May 8, 1953? Just wondered why the difference.

Because the ACC page is right, and they are wrong...

From http://www.theacc.com/this-is/acc-this-is.html:

The Atlantic Coast Conference was founded on May 8, 1953, at the Sedgefield Inn near Greensboro, N.C., with seven charter members -- Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina and Wake Forest -- drawing up the conference by-laws.
The withdrawal of seven schools from the Southern Conference came early on the morning of May 8, 1953, during the Southern Conference’s annual spring meeting. On June 14, 1953, the seven members met in Raleigh, N.C., where a set of bylaws was adopted and the name became officially the Atlantic Coast Conference.
