Football Viewing Parties

    Do you have suggestions for viewing parties in the DC/VA/MD area?  Would you like to host viewing parties at a local restaurant or bar next season?  The Clemson Club is looking for volunteers who can organize viewing parties around the region is various communities for the 2011 season.  No financial commitment is necessary.  For example, if you and your friends have a "regular spot" to watch games, you can coordinate with that location and the Clemson Club staff to be an official viewing party location for next season.  Contact Elizabeth Jackson at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

The Scroll of Honor Memorial

    The Clemson Corps has developed a Scroll of Honor to recognize those alumni who were killed while performing their military duties. To date, over 470 alumni have been identified who were killed from World War I through the current wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

    The Scroll of Honor Memorial is located on Williamston Road across the street from Memorial Stadium and the East Gate (where “Howard’s Rock” is located). You will see a large mound with boulders at the base and grass on top. The mound is encircled by trees. The entrance Plaza is guarded by two large Tigers.

    The Clemson Corps, in conjunction with the Alumni Association, has established a website, http://cualumni.clemson.edu/scrollofhonor, to honor the Clemson Alumni that gave the ultimate sacrifice to their country. There is a webpage for each name on the Scroll of Honor containing background material such as home town, activities at Clemson, war history and personal remembrances etc. Family, friends and classmates are encouraged to write a remembrance or provide personal information on any of the individuals of the Scroll of Honor. The website provides three ways that you may submit personal information or comments:

Board Member Spotlight

Colonel Carlos Hill '86

    Carlos graduated with a BS in Civil Engineering in 1986. He was a member of Air Force ROTC, Arnold Air Society, Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity and a WSBF jazz program host. He also served for 2.5 years as a Resident Advisor in Lever Hall.

    Upon graduation Carlos was commissioned into the United States Air Force was assigned as an aircraft maintenance officer. He served on active duty at at based in Illinois, California and Illinois working on the B-52, B-1 and KC-135 aircraft. While in Texas, he returned to graduate school and earned a MS in Management and Human Relations from Abilene Christian University. His last active duty assignment was teaching Air Force ROTC at Rutgers and Princeton Universities in New Jersey.

    Upon separating from active duty (for more geographical stability!), Carlos went to work as a Human Resource Director at General Electric, and worked Massachuesetts, Alabama, Florida and Pennsylania. There he worked on mergers and acquisitions and assimilating newly acquired companies into the GE culture. He concurrently served in the Air Force Reserve as a maintenance office on the C-5 aircraft.

    After September 11, 2001, Carlos was mobilized back to active duty for two years and as a consequence, volunteered to return to Active Duty full-time. He was selected for the Air Force Congresssinal Fellowship program and worked on Capitol Hill for 1 year in the Office of Sen James M. Inhofe. Carlos was then assigned to the Air Force Senate Liaison Officer, and serves today in the Pentagon as the Reserve Advisor to Sectraty of the Air Force's Office of Legislative Liaison.

    Carlos' favorite memories of Clemson are endlessly marching across Bowman Field on Thursday afternoons, inspecting dorm rooms for contraband and teaching Clemson how to swing from the microphone atop the Loggia.

    He has participated in the Clemson Club since 2004 and has been on the Board of Directors of the Clemson Club since June 2009. He would like to see the Club continue to look for ways to honor the military heritage of the university and encourage more alumni to volunteer for Club activities.
