Clemson- if you have a kid from DC area there tell me how they are doing/impressions etc?

Those who choose it, love it. We know 4 people doing undergrad there now. All are conservative and religious. If that’s your thing, it will be nirvana.

Agree. The family friends with kids there which are around 6 from Bethesda area, love it. Not religious, not super conservative

Not all of Clemson is super conservative or even a little conservative from how I see some of the students dress on social media! Not conservative at all

Definitely not all conservative.

OP, if you are one of the people around here that think anything south of Woodbridge is the land of toothless rednecks and that a kid who oh my...might want to go to church on Sunday is a bad thing than you probably need to find a different institution. The two students we know love it, but they are the big school, pro-sports open minded type. I'll also add neither has ever set foot in a church, the floor would probably burn.

A lot of the students are pretty religious and into a christian club, I can't remember the name. Girls still do debutante balls and things like that. And sadly, the diversity that exists on campus is very segregated. It is like taking a step back in time.

She is an outsider. Sorry, but that's the truth. But if she can get herself invited to a friend's deb ball, she'll have a great time and might just meet Mr. Wonderful.

+1. The daughter of a close friend is a current student. She absolutely loves it and is not overly religious and definitely not conservative. She’s made great friends from all over.

Nope, not many conservatives there anymore. Quite a few trumpsters, though...
