“I have the opportunity to work with students and alumni volunteers every day, our newest members of the Clemson Family and those who have been Tigers for decades. Each person I meet and story I hear makes me proud to work for a University that provides unique experiences for folks in and out of the classroom.”

“The most important factor that has helped me to do my research here is the outstanding graduate students I’ve been able to recruit and the tremendous support we’ve had through the Creative Inquiry program to support more than 100 students who have now contributed to our research in the Florida Keys. That’s a great opportunity that I’ve had here at Clemson.”
