Student Carrie Baum shares her view of Clemson's class environment , saying, "I love the classroom environment at Clemson. The classes can be large or small, but I always feel like everyone really gets invovled. I think the teachers do a great job of really making you feel comfortable in the classroom setting. With my major, Graphic Communications, I spend a whole lot of outside time in lab. In my major there are a lot of group projects where we are designing packaging, logos, designs, running presses, and creating. It takes a lot of effort and help from classmates and teachers to make it through the semester. I love the size of Clemson because although it is a 'big' school, it's small enough to where I am always saying 'hey' to someone on the way to class, and it really feels liks a family here!" (Baum).

National Scholars Program — Clemson's most competitive academic recruiting scholarship that offers a highly select group of undergraduates a dynamic, creative and engaging series of educational enrichment opportunities.
ROTC — Clemson began as a military school and has maintained a strong military tradition through the years. The University's ROTC programs are some of the best in the country.
