Favorite question on a tour: “What brought you down here from New Jersey?” Answer: There is absolutely no place like Clemson. With immense traditions, die-hard fans, committed professors, and the happiest students, there is truly something in these hills. Clemson has allowed me to find myself, define my goals, and surround myself with inspiring individuals that love this place just as much as I do. There’s something for everybody here. As I like to call it, we are the perfect “work hard, play hard” school. This university has offered me a great combination of academic and social opportunities that have allowed me to achieve the ultimate college experience.
