Love this place. I went in not knowing anyone (even though a few students from my graduating class came) and made some good friends in the process. There's not a huge city to go clubbing in, but that also means there's not a lot of bums and criminals wandering the streets.

If you like clubbing and huge cities, this place isn't for you. If you love going out on the lake, swimming, hiking, mountain biking, waterskiing, fishing, and in general just being outdoors, this is the place for you. Just spend a day out on Lake Hartwell, or make a short drive to the mountains of the Upstate for a hike at Table Rock, and you'll see what I mean.

Even if you don't like the outdoors, I can't see how you'd be disappointed walking in my footsteps each day. I wake up and walk to class across the library bridge, over the reflection pond. From there I walk back for a couple of classes, grab some food at the dining hall, and head to work. After work I walk the brick pathway with the names of all the Clemson graduates, through an amazing landscape on my way back to my apartment. I have to cross one two-lane road, but that's about it. Outside of my apartment is an open grass field with huge oak trees. It's never a problem throwing the football around; there's plenty of open space in which to do it.

Come saturday, you'll never experience anything like Clemson. Being at Death Valley on the hill for a night game is a thrill one can only imagine. The pure pride and surroundings are enough to convince all but the most die-hard Gamecock fan to come here. You'll truly be having

the best time of your life with 80,000 of your closest friends
as you find yourself jumping up and down and high-fiving complete strangers (as well as yelling alongside them) at every moment of the game. Just listening to the Alma Mater play while standing on the field after a big win is unlike anything else in the world.

I can't think of any other place I'd rather be. This truly is one of the most amazing places in the world - "where the Blue Ridge yawns its greatness, where the Tigers play."
