As I basked in the Clemson spirit in Santa Clara witnessing our Clemson Tigers win the national championship, I heard Coach Swinney say in his interview, “We were not chasing the national championship, we were focused on being the best we could be every day.” Chasing excellence yielded perfection for Clemson Football this year. As we relentlessly pursue excellence in science, we may not have national championships, but we will have a tremendous positive impact as we tackle tomorrow’s greatest scientific challenges and prepare the next generation of scientists. Thank you for being such a big part of the education, research and experience that happens across our University every day. Thank you for giving back with your time, energy and resources. In the fall, some of you supported scholarships and fellowships, invested in your own discipline and major, and some gave to Clemson and Science for the first time. THANK YOU for your kindness and generosity. Your support helps build world-class facilities and recruit extraordinary faculty on the cutting edge of tomorrow’s discoveries. Your gifts elevate the student experience with high-impact research and global experiences. Your generosity allows future and current Tigers the opportunity to have that very special Clemson experience: as doctoral students, undergraduate students, or grade school children who are inspired by our passion for science. As we look back at 2018 – What a Year! – I am reminded of that image of Coach Swinney and our student athletes locked arm-in-arm as they took the field. Join us academically, arm-in-arm, as we collectively focus on advancing SCIENCE. Go Tigers!

True-freshman quarterback Trevor Lawrence led the charge, playing with a calm and maturity well beyond his years.
