Clemson needs to show more love to Alumni fans


Nov 12, 2018, 4:14 PM

Follow the lead set by Boston College. They named their football stadium 'Alumni Stadium'. Find me one place with a field called Non-Alumni Stadium

We named our stadium something better.

"Memorial Stadium" for Clemson Students that made the ultimate sacrifice.

Beat that.

They can't even sacrifice themselves to show up on the hill.

Slightly off topic - but where Clemson needs to show alumni


Nov 12, 2018, 4:36 PM

love is to give Alumni children a discount in tuition. The old days when most families stay in SC is long gone.
It is too expensive to pay out-of-state back to Clemson (+40k per year) - vs in state where I live (FL) (about 17k per year.)
I would love for my son to go to Clemson - but the difference in cost is just too great. I understand the fact that state taxes reduce the cost for "in state" kids. I am not saying the costs need to go that low - but maybe "in-state" cost plus 2-5k???
This would retain the Clemson family. Then - pass down the love for generations.

JMO anyway.

I’d love this. Have 2 there now, with 3rd in 2019 and 4th in 2020. In state and it’s still a stretch. We are moving to a van down by the river, but at least the kids get to experience Clemson!!!!

I live just over the ridge in the wrong Carolina. Clemson is still the closest (ACC) school. A discount would help but I will pay anything to keep them from going to (either) Carolina and I bet the admissions office knows that.

I also know that the Graduate program did/will waive out-of-state tuition.

The state provides less than 10% of Clemson's operating costs. They charge so much for out of state because they can.

The sign maker screwed up. It's Aluminum Stadium.

For all the empty seats.
