Super Brilliant
I loved the campus life at Clemson. It was a wonderful place to grow and learn. I only wish that they would improve their co-op programs so that I would have had more opportunities for more practical work experience while studying in the College of Architecture.

I could go on forever about my time up in Clemson- but then I'd be here for hours. The University has been, was and will always continue to be one of the most influential aspects of my life. One couldn't make a better decision than to attend Clemson. Go Tigers!

The Good:

Beautiful campus, friendly people - both the students and the townsfolk. Professors are generally approachable and helpful.

If you like the outdoors, Clemson makes a great "base camp."

You get the benefits of a small town (low crime, cheap housing) with the benefits of a major research university.

It's hard to beat the experience of Clemson football.


The Bad:

The dorms suck. A large number of students leave after Freshman year. The rest leave after sophomore year.

Parking Services is evil.

There really isn't much to do in town besides Clemson sports and the college bar scene. If you aren't 21, it's even worse. The cops really don't have anything better to do than bust underage drinkers. When it isn't a football or basketball weekend, people leave.

It's an engineering school in the middle of nowhere. Don't expect much in the way of arts and/or culture. The campus is not very ethnically or ideologically diverse.

If you don't join a "group" (e.g. frat/sorority, bible study, club, etc.) you'll have a hard time finding friends or things to do.

I couldn't imagine myself being any happier going to any other college other than Clemson. You see quotes all over the place about "there's something in these hills" and it's true! I can't explain why Clemson is so important to me, but no matter where I am (now down in Miami), when I run into someone that went to Clemson they are immediately family. They are the most loyal, friendly people you will ever meet and the southern hospitality rubs off on you whether you're a "yankee" (i'm from pennsylvania) or a true southerner. Employers are impressed that I went to Clemson--I was in the business program that was ranked the top 10 programs in the country including ivy leagues. I'm not a very emotional person but thinking about how much Clemson means to me literally brings tears to my eyes. I wish I could share that with as many people as I can because its impossible to explain the happiness Clemson and it's people have brought me. It's a place you can just enjoy life.. hang out at the lake on weekends and go play frisbee. There's people from so many areas of the country that you're bound to find a group of friends that you fit in with. I love sports so Clemson was awesome in terms of sporting events!! Clemson fans go CRAZY especially for football games and baseball in the spring. The amount of school spirit you feel in death valley gives you goosebumps... and students stay through the last second of the game... whether we're losing or winning... and sing the alma matter at the end, even if we lose to our rival South Carolina with tears in their eyes :) I know that was really sappy but I really do love Clemson with all my heart and I wish so many more people can experience that too.
