Well my NYC metro area irish/Italian Catholic very liberal daughter is at Clemson and couldn’t be happier. She might even be a finance major (started with actuarial science I believe, switched to the business school, now 2 advisors are helping her make sure she has the right math classes to take a few exams before graduation, she loves them). She says everyone is so friendly, and even though some of her friends have different political views, it’s not an issue because it’s so less political than home. On the other hand, another daughter’s friends at UDel are way more argumentative (she’s pretty left). I was afraid she’d get bored after the newness wore off (she loves NYC, we are 10 miles away), but now she wants us to move to a lake and get a boat. Clemson has free airport shuttles before and after breaks, but with so many OOS students with cars, finding rides is easy. Football and basketball games have been awesome.
