Life is a series of choices. Success is a choice. Excellence in graduate education is a choice. You have chosen to pursue your graduate studies at Clemson University — an institution that has set a goal to become top-twenty public research university. This institutional goal suggests that our most important product — you, our students — should reflect, above all, excellence.
We, the Graduate School, have chosen to select you, the entering class of fall 2007, with whom to initiate a distinctive, professional development program. It is our intent to ensure that significant opportunities for self-assessment as well as personal and professional growth augment your graduate academic experience at Clemson, and together will form your “Clemson graduate student experience.”
We encourage you to choose to participate.
Welcome to Clemson!
