Some stereotypes about Clemson include the fact that it is a prestigious school, and that the students are all very spirited and tight knit. The student body is like a giant family, and we are all very excited to be at Clemson all the time.

Harper

We are country and stuck in the moo and dairy school that has a hard time competing with the other schools in the country on all levels. We are one of the best schools for engineering and science in the land. We have a big sense of community and look out for each other.

Jared

Haven't heard any.

Anna

red-neck

Because of Clemson's location, the town and the University are viewed as having "country folks". Many people who have never attended Clemson say there is nothing to do because it is a small town as compared to USC in Columbia.

Preppy southern upper-middle class students.

I have heard that Clemson is a huge jock school.

The majority of students attending are Ag. Majors. All Clemson students hate the Carolina Gamecocks.

Clemson students are the happiest you will ever meet. Everyone loves where they are and who they are with. The students either all play sports or are HUGE sport fans. We are all dedicated to our work but know how to play even harder.

Preppy, boys with pink golf shirts and rainbow shoes and girls in dresses. Non diverse (aka all white). Hick school where everyone drives a tractor and talks with an accent.

The Clemson students are stereotyped to be preppy and the "richer" students from South Carolina. Clemson, as a town, is said to be hickish.
