Parents who have children there use this term. I’ve heard it many times.

I hate to be crass but you probably don’t get it. And that’s ok. The mores are just different than your demographic. The money is for most a very small part of their budget, so that’s not typically part of the private school thinking equation. They went, their parents went, and their kids will go private.
I don’t know. I went to visitation, and now that my friends’ kids are getting to high school age, I’m surprised by how many are not going to visitation or Gonzaga.

I was raised in the South. Clemson has no redeeming qualities. Not educationally, socially, in athletics. USC is better in everything (that’s no saying much) and Citadel has their niche filled.

You were raised in the South...you capitalized it. You are a racist USC Alumn that champions the Greek system and "Southern" culture. You are an unworthy pathetic human so sit the hell down "Southerner."
Not a USC Alum. Or an Alum of any Southern Public. Did not go through the Greek system and do not think highly of “Southern culture”. Hence the move away from the South. Besides that, dead on.
And who or what am I unworthy of? You sound a bit snobby there. Do I have to pay $40k in HS tuition to be “worthy” of an opinion on this thread?
Clemson is a mediocre school. Not even the best school SC has to offer. I’d don’t know what visi sent 9 girls to Clemson. I’d like to sayI don’t care. But after years of hearing about how college counseling was what you really paid for at the DMV privates, I am interested. After hearing the privates helped each kid find the perfect school, and tailor their app, and stayed on top of apps and corresponded with the schools, I want to know if Clemson was the best 9 girls could do? Because they’d get a higher caliber Mrs. at a different SEC school.

Greek life, SEC schools, culturally Southern, wealthy & privileged...it's a family thing.
At Clemson? If that’s your thing, why not Alabama, Ole Miss, Auburn. UGA, even USC where they do it better? Or, UNC or GA Tech, where they are smarter?
