ClemsonWiki:Featured Articles
{{ClemsonWiki:Currently Featured Article}}

Established in 1907 as a bi-weekly news and sports journal, The Tiger is South Carolina's oldest college newspaper. The weekly national award-winning publication has a circulation of about 12,000 and is distributed every Friday on and off campus. Today, The Tiger office is located inside Clemson University's Hendrix Student Center, its home since 2000. Previously, the newspaper had been located for many years on the ninth floor of the University Union. In October of 1997, the organization began the The Tiger: Online Edition which now manages to serve an average of 7,000 visitors a week. Although the newspaper used to receive funding each year from the University, The Tiger became financially independent in 2004. (More...)

November 19: Dear Students,

Dr. R.C. Edwards, Clemson's eighth president, is ill and would benefit from your thoughts and prayers. Within the past few days he has been taken to hospice care.

Some of you may have heard about Clemson's beloved Dr. Edwards from parents or grandparents. Some of you may have read about him while learning Clemson's history. And a few of you likely attended the local school named for him, R.C. Edwards Middle School. Dr. Edwards cared deeply about students and his character embodied our Core Values: Honesty, Integrity, and Respect. Here are some highlights of his presidency that might be of interest to you:

1963 – Clemson becomes first public university in South Carolina to desegregate with the enrollment of Harvey Gantt

1963 – first women's residence hall occupied

1964 – Governor signs the state law changing the name of Clemson Agricultural College to Clemson University

1965 – Clemson awards the first Ph.D. degrees in engineering in South Carolina

1974 -- Clemson's total enrollment tops 10,000 students for the first time

Many student life, academic and residence buildings were constructed or completed during his presidency:

R.M. Cooper Library

Daniel Hall

Jordan Hall

Edwards Hall

Barre Hall

Rhodes Engineering Research Center

Cook Engineering Laboratory

Barnett, Cope, Geer, Sanders, Manning, Lever, Byrnes, Smith residence halls

Schilletter Dining Hall

Redfern Health Center

Strode Tower

Alumni Center

Littlejohn Coliseum

Jervey Athletic Center

Edgar A. Brown University Union

As you can see, former President R.C. Edwards' legacy has had a lasting impact that has directly enhanced the quality of the student experience today. He was a forward thinker, a visionary and yet preserved tradition. It was through enhancing the vision and protecting tradition that Clemson has become the great place that it is today. We have much for which to thank Dr. Edwards. Please keep him, as well as his family, in your thoughts and prayers.

I wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving. Travel safely and enjoy the break!

Best,

Gail A. DiSabatino

Vice President for Student Affairs

Clemson University
