Safety
While academics and student life tend to be the focus of freshman as they come to Clemson, nothing is more important than safety. As a community Clemson is in a less populated area that is much safer than the neighborhood of most college campuses. I have never felt unsafe walking on campus at night. CUPD is always working to keep students safe. Things happen everywhere no matter how infrequently. Here are their tips on Crime Prevention.
