[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah the more frequent and open racism, huge Greek culture, conservatism of the State and the school being a bit of a let down for those who didn’t get into Clemson all seem like big turnoffs to me. [/quote]

Why are we continuing to perpetuate stereotypes based on experiences you all had over a decade ago?
I have a student there now.  No indications of any of these things mentioned.  Great school overall.  Even better business school.
Super fun sports and social scene.  Strong academics.

But, I guess that doesn't meet the DCUM narrative.  Sorry it isn't an Ivy.  In many ways, it is better!
GO COCKS![/quote]

My son is there and there is frequent use of the n word and racism.

Not by the university or teachers but definitely by students.

My sons SC friends are not racist but most other people he meets don’t think anything of it.

So you are condemning an entire student body based on your son's experience?  And then resolve your son's friends.  And then say most others don't think anything of it?
Sounds like a lot of double standards being applied here.[/quote]

I never once stated that my son heard an entire student body use the n word.

His roommate is from SC and is very liberal. Jokes about we eat pimento cheese but never Palmetto cheese.

But also my son hears the n word all the time, like it NBD for many students. The racist comments are something he has never seen. BTW my kids went to a conservative Catholic school and he never heard this much racism.[/quote]
