Question about the new President
Nov 9, 2013, 6:17 PM
|
|
Do y'all think he/she would take the University in a direction similar to Cornell ie Liberal Arts with Engineering and Sciences?
What say you?

I'd rather bring some of the emphasis...

back to agriculture. That IS the university's primary mission after all. That college is in dire need of more faculty, but there isn't any more to hire them. My major department (horticulture) has lost half a dozen or so professors in the last 5 or 6 years and hasn't replaced them. Important classes are going untaught.

you have to have better undergrad grades to go to a vet school that a med school due to the limited numbers of sports at Ga and auburn

Then we could hire my wife to teach, and I get to live in Clemson. Hey, can we start a petition or something.

There are less than 30 vet schools in the entire country...it would be nice to have an accredited one in the state.

I think it's about half... Clemson gets less than 15% of it's budget from direct state funding. This is why they keep trying less state over site..
It is a shame that in the State of South Carolina in order to become a vet you have to go out of state...

Yep.... I think that Tri-County Tech use to have a pre-vet course so you could transfer to UGA........ That is just sad...... How much could it really cost?
Clemson also missed the boat when PC added a RX school... Clemson should have gone after that hard... The upstate has the most population of any area in the state and they didn't have a RX school....
Clemson will more than likely let some small school add a med school also missing that boat also... The upstate could use one.... And a true research hospital so everyone doesn't have to drive to Durham, Atlanta, or Charleston... It's a big deal if you need to be seen on a regular basis...
