This means that universities across the country must accommodate these new students, their vehicles, and local transportation needs. Campus setting and ambiance is a treasured quality on a university campus resulting in the approval of additional surface lots and parking garages being difficult or restricted. To combat the increased number of single occupancy vehicles, universities are developing and encouraging the use of multi- modal transportation by providing pedestrian, bicycle, and public transportation facilities along with providing users with the information necessary to make the optimal modal choice (Boyles, 2006).

For some, this may mean access to resources to help them through difficult times, while for others that may mean knowledge of local events and experiences to enhance their time in the area, whether for a short visit or an extended residency. Hopefully, this encourages involvement in all aspects of our community and maybe shed some light on some lesser known groups and organizations in the area. This guide includes resources and organizations in Oconee, Pickens, Anderson, and Greenville counties, which are shown in the map below. Clemson is marked by the City logo on the map, hiding in the bottom corner of Pickens County, right on the border of both Anderson and Oconee counties. (These three counties are collectively known as the Tri-County area.) Clemson is also just a short drive from Greenville, which is a larger, more metropolitan area. The City of Clemson is a university town that provides a strong sense of community and a high quality of life for its residents. University students add to its diversity and vitality.

There’s a lot of conversation at Clemson about that ques- tion. Be certain of one thing: Clemson will question its success and make changes that will foster success in the future. Recently, success and change were the topics of a four-hour conversation at the Madren Center. More than 100 Clemson faculty members, staff and students attended a Public Service Activities summit on improving the University’s connection with South Carolina’s communities. In my opening comments at the summit, I said that I believe the land-grant univer- sity model may be the best idea America ever had. It has fundamentally changed our country in the most positive ways. Its success, however, may have hindered our ability to evolve. When you hit a home run, you’re not inclined to change anything.

But I will offer you two different words — search committee.
