The most popular student activities/groups include attending sporting events , particularly football and basketball. Many students are involved in the Fellowship of Christian athletes organization-in fact we have one of the largest in the country for colleges! Outdoorsy groups are also huge here, along with tons of community service orientated organizations.

The most popular activities at Clemson are clubs like FCA. Inter-mural sports are also very popular. Not a lot of students participate in Greek life but is an important group around campus. Every year the huge rivalry between Clemson and the University of South Carolina is played. Consequently, the sports are very popular. A lot of students are also spending a lot of time in the library. There are also research opportunities available to undergraduate students. If you're interested in something, it is very likely that you can become involved in it or you can start your own club.

The school spirit is crazy - everyone is all about their school spirit at Clemson. It's pretty large, but not too large. People tend to think highly of Clemson students. The campus is absolutely beautiful. There are tons of places to relax between classes or study spots. The town is very college friendly - the college pretty much is the town. (and downtown is fun too). The administration is very friendly. Clemson football is the best.

The saying about what you put into something is what you get out is DEFINED at Clemson. It is totally true that if you put any effort at all into enjoying it here and making friends, you WILL do just that.

Clemson is a great University. People have a great time being themselves, pursuing things they love to do. It offers a lot of things for anyone. You can be involved with multiple organizations or you can play intramural sports. You can do things with your friends or you can be in a sorority or fraternity. You can enjoy a Clemson football game at 8:00 on a Saturday night after being out on the lake and tailgating all day. Clemson is an experience that will suck you in and never spit you out. As Joe Sherman, class of 1964 said, "Clemson: those on the inside can't explain it, and those on the outside don't understand it."

Go to Clemson!

Clemson is a great place to recieve a top notch education, meet friends that you will never forget, and it is also a given that you will have a blast!

I'd like more clarity on what us, as students, are supposed to do as major requirements and so forth. That we know the status of our particular school or college within the university and that we have more of a say as to how it is run. As well I would like an orientation that is more major oriented, that really shows you how you will live and learn at Clemson. As well, a better consideration from the administration concerning the students well being, whether in regards to parking, meal plans, rooming, tuituion costs or even how to best learn a subject.

Clemson is the little big school. Small town atmosphere with a big University presence!

The professors at Clemson are awesome! The class sizes are relatively small, so it is very personal and the students aren't just "numbers". I actually look forward to most of my classes! Being a math major, I have had great experiences with the professors in this area. Also, the academic advisors are VERY helpful and easy to talk to. The genuinely care about your education and achieving your goals in order to prepare you for the future.

The professors are very good. Most of them learn who you are, even in larger classes. They are accessible outside of class and are very helpful. Engineering isn't easy, but there are several groups like supplemental instruction and study hours that are there to help you. The quality is there, you just need to figure out how to use it just like any other college. The school has the image of being a huge party school, but we know when it is time to get down to business and work.

Professors know everybody individually. Class partcipation is common; we do discuss outside the class, and students are competitive.

Clemson is a very social school. Most dorm rooms have their doors open, and it's not out of place to ask anyone to grab a bite to eat with you, especially freshman year. Since Clemson is in a college town, most all activities near campus are geared towards college students. There is plenty to do on campus during the football season, though spring semester can be a bit less active. Clemson is known as a party school, but I haven't found that to be entirely true. Downtown is very popular Thursday through Saturday, but exam week is usually dead. You can usually find a party going on any weekend, especially during football season. The Greek life is very prevalent at Clemson, and there is a wide array of fraternities and sororities. However, I never joined one and never felt out of place. IPTAY (the Clemson athletic scholarship fund), ClemsonLiVE (Clemson's entertainment group) The Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and Student Government are very popular at Clemson. However, you can find a group for most any interest on campus.

There are plenty of clubs for even the shyest of the shy out there, and if you give it some time, you can find a group or organization you truly feel connected to and want to join. Trust me. IF you want it, you can find it. Dorm life is just like anywhere else, and a great place to meet people you're freshman year. Athletic events are HUGE, I think clemson is one of the biggest jock schools in the country, hands down. People show up in the masses for women's/men's soccer games (1,000-2,500+), football (90,000), men's basketball (13,000+), baseball (6,000 people+). Mass support. Greek life comprises about 25% of the population. I met my friends I have now from a variety of places...orientation, clubs, classes, sports. You'll find that freshman year especially everyone is eager to meet people and find their potential "new best friend"...trust me. Party scene is just as big as anywhere else if not bigger, especially during football season. Spring time, cops crack down a little more but it's still a pretty big scene. They usually have a good amount of activities/sponsored events on the weekends that don't involve drinking. The Edgar's student union is usually pretty active Friday nights in the spring and includes bowling, comics who come do stand up, pool, video games, etc.

Clemson rocks, just be aware it's a largely conservative student body and that someone will try to save you at least once a month. I just tell 'em I'm Catholic (I'm not).

My professors do know my name. I think most students study an hour to 30 mins a day, but not all at once, just a little bit between classes anda t night, and then study a lot before tests (thats what I do). Class participation is common and in a lot of classes required. Students are not really competetive and me and my friends don't have extremely intellectual conversations outside of class. The most unique class I've taken is probably my Sexuality in the Cinema class. My major is English, so I write a lot of papers, but I liek that more that taking tests.

no but there are some rednecks.

I love the Clemson football games. There is a ton of school pride. There isn't enough parking though. Its the perfect size not to big or to small. I really like the size of my classes, most of them are small.

-All greeks are not drunks. The Greek system is one of the strongest groups of students at Clemson and is actually about 20% of the student body. Our student body president is Greek. The only groups who do philanthropies are Greek and we are the largest
