From the Inaugural Dean
At the Clemson Honors College, we believe in the power of intentional experiences to shape lives and communities. This year, we’ve deepened our commitment to that belief, enhancing the academic, personal, and professional journeys our students take while they’re here, and building stronger connections that will support them long after they graduate. Our students continue to earn recognition across disciplines, from prestigious fellowships and national scholarships to participation in groundbreaking undergraduate research. But beyond their achievements, they’ve distinguished themselves by the ways they’ve collaborated, mentored, and led inside classrooms, throughout campus, and across communities near and far. The stories that follow show how the Clemson University Honors College cultivates a vibrant community of learners and leaders who grow through connection and purpose. This year we introduced new Honors Competencies and Learning Outcomes to guide the development of Honors courses and experiential learning, while deepening collaboration with faculty to enhance the student experience. These efforts advance our vision of an Honors education that inspires discovery, fosters belonging, and equips students to excel at Clemson and beyond.
We’re also building new bridges — strengthening our relationships with alumni, fostering mentorship, and advancing programs that create and sustain a sense of belonging, purpose, and community.
This report captures a community in motion with scholars shaping their fields, finding their voices, and, most importantly, supporting each other as we move Fiercely Forward towards the future.
