The Tiger-Paw-Stamped $2 Bill

Clemson fans take a Tiger-Paw-stamped $2 bill to away games to show

the economic impact our fans have on a city.

Scroll of Honor

Beginning with the first-year class in 1893, Clemson was a military college

for 62 years. Then from 1955 until 1970, all freshmen and sophomores

were required to participate in ROTC. Today, more than 300 students

still participate in Military Science courses on a voluntary basis. Clemson

University has a proud military tradition with more than 10,000 alumni who

have served in the armed forces, from the Spanish-American War through

the war on terrorism.

The Clemson Corps, a constituent group of the Alumni Association, has

developed the Scroll of Honor to recognize those alumni who have given

the ultimate sacrifice in service to their country. To date, 470 alumni have

been identified. The Clemson Corps coordinated a Universitywide effort to

construct a memorial to honor these heroes. The Scroll of Honor Memorial

is located adjacent to the east gate of Memorial Stadium — across from

Howard’s Rock.

We encourage you to visit the Memorial to gain an appreciation for the

sacrifice of these alumni and to help us uphold this site as a place for

commemoration and respect for years to come.

PARENT TESTIMONIAL

“The resources I found helpful

to staying connected to

Andrew’s life at Clemson are

all the social media groups

on Twitter and Facebook:

Clemson Football, Clemson

Honors, Clemson Family and

more. From time to time I love

to go to ClemsonTV just to see

what the students are working

on. I love ClemsonTV. I greatly

appreciate and read the

Clemson Family Press that

comes to my email account.

I want to say again, I found

the resources at Clemson

to support and equip me to

support Andrew. To sum it up,

I would tell a new parent to

sign up for as many email and

Twitter groups from Clemson

University as possible. Just to

know how exciting it is to be at

a place like Clemson. Also, it

gives us a conversation starter

when we talk to Andrew on

the phone. ‘So, I heard Bill

Gates was on campus, did you

go?’ — is a great way to let

him know we support him and

support his time at Clemson.”
