Forget the article and just enjoy reading the comments below it. I can almost hear Herm Edwards screaming now, "don't press send!" That "town" is stuck in a different time period. Here we get a taste of everything from the colorful morons of dumplumbia. I mean it's really sad but funny in a way. Here they debate Jesus's skin color and all sorts of racial propaganda. Geez......

The real crime is his BBQ. It's not that good.

Super processed, not authentic in my opinion. True BBQ in west Columbia is much better and is ironically enough run by two very nice black gentlemen.

that Jockstraps continue to claim Clemson is a racist school based on Tillman's views.
Racism was predominant in SC in the 1800s including at $CU and on the $CU campus.
However, some Capons have refused to move into the 21st century as you still see these types of idiotic and incredibly hypocritical comments from them.

In USuCk's beloved Horsehoe, there is a building named after Henry William DeSaussure. Here is a little tidbit about Mr. Desaussure;
DeSaussure and his brother-in-law, Timothy Ford, were powerful Charleston lawyers who owned many slaves. DeSaussure was among the first pro-slavery advocates who publicly reject the prevailing definition of equality referring to blacks as "inferior animals" and "dark and savage barbarians". He argued that salvery was a positive good and a necessity for freedom and independence.
Also located in The Horseshoe, you will find Rutledge College (1805) named after John Rutledge. John Rutledge was one of very few of our founding fathers in support of slavery and was a slave holder. He was an "American legislator who, as a delegate to the Constitutional Convention of 1787, strongly supported the protection of slavery.
In addition to these two remarkable examples of popular $CU buildings named after racists and slaveholders we also find the McCutchen House also located in SCU's Horseshoe. It is named for Professor George McCutchen, who lived in the house from 1915 to World War II. In this case it cannot be proven that this house was named after a racist but instead we find that it actually housed slaves. During the Horseshoe renovation project in the 1970s, evidence of slave quarters were found on the third floor. Yes...there ius evidence that slaves were living on the University of South Carolina campus.
I won’t even get into $CU closing its doors in the late 1800's rather than admit black students as mandated by reconstruction
or
Jack, the First College-owned Slave
In 1808, the board of trustees purchased a slave to work exclusively for the college at the rate of $100 per year. The college purchased Jack in 1816 for $900.
In addition to Jack, many other hired-out slaves worked on campus. Contractors used slave labor to make bricks, build fences, and to construct and maintain the college buildings and grounds. Records dating from November 1816 indicate that Stewards Hall employed fifteen slaves who produced, prepared, and served student meals. This group included a butcher, a baker, four female kitchen workers, a wagon driver, and two additional laborers who cut wood, worked in the garden, or worked in the mills. Additional salves were hired to make students’ beds and sweep the tenements and public spaces. In addition to paying for tuition and board, students paid an annual fee to defray the cost of hiring and caring for the slaves who performed these services.
or
James Marion Sims (the Sims College) used slaves as experimental subjects. Sims operated on at least 10 slave women (some on multiple occasions) from about 1845 to 1849 without anesthesia (although anesthesia was available)
Now tell me again which school honors men with racist views?

I posted the article cause I thought the ridiculous comments were hilarious and should be chuckled at. Not to start some race debate or slavery talk.
If you've got a funny joke or clever and witty comment, go for it. We're not getting serious though.

Yes I do. Thomas Clemson was born in Philly.

He was a highly educated gentleman. He served as the superintendant of agriculture, the forerunner of the sec'y of agriculture position and was also ambassador to Belgium. He married the daughter of John C Calhoun and left the Calhoun lands to the state to establish the school that now bears his name. Altogether a remarkable gentlemen and a founder we can be quite proud of.

died. He left the land to establish a school. His decision was largely influenced by Governor Benjamin Tillman. Tillman lobbied the South Carolina General Assembly to create the school as an agricultural institution for the state and the resolution passed by only one vote.
Denial isn't just a river in Egypt!

he wrote?
#2) "Denial" is a University of South Carolina fan (alumnus?) coming to a Clemson University site to talk "Founding Father Smack" about racism as if it is A) Relevant and B) NOT hypocritical. The University of South Carolina was founded in Columbia, SC in 1801. Clemson University was founded in Clemson, SC (well..."Calhoun" at the time) in 1889. Are we now acting like racism didn't exist in South Carolina in the nineteenth century?
