It is time now to rename Clemson University


Jun 12, 2020, 12:22 PM

Or at least have a serious discussion about it. We all know that Thomas Clemson was a slave owner and fought for the confederacy. The BOT has finally done the right thing with Tillman and Calhoun. It is now time for the BOT to take up the really hard task of renaming the University. A good start will be for one of tomorrow's speakers to bring up the topic and for the football team to remove the name from their jerseys this season. It will probably come up and push to the forefront in either 2024 or 2028. But the BOT and the University should get out in front of this one and do the right thing before having to be placed under immense public pressure.

Like it or not, Thomas Green Clemson founded the school. There is simply no changing that. Calhoun didn't start the honors college and Tillman Hall was not built by Ben Tillman. So, that institution and building are different circumstances. However, this is a slippery slope and I will not be surprised if the school's name is the next thing to come under fire.

You do realize Tillman was instrumental in founding Clemson?


Jun 12, 2020, 12:36 PM

Don't you? He was South Carolina's Governor during our founding. Educate yourself.

Yes, and the building was named in appreciation. However, he is not TGC.

Maybe they should name the Calhoun Mansion something catchy like Fort Hill.
