Get Involved
Want to volunteer with the Clemson Club and give back to Clemson? Then we need you! Here are a few ideas:
Events
We’re always looking for event ideas, locations, hosts, and sponsors. If you think you can be of help with our events in any way, please contact us.
Make Connections
Facilitate connections with top industry professionals, companies or foundations: The DC/Baltimore corridor is home to many, many foundations and company headquarters who may have an interest in partnering with Clemson on a high level This could expand beyond the beltway and go all the way back to campus. Ideas include university endowments, foundation grants, scholarships, or instituting programs or new initiatives for students.
If you or someone you know would like to speak to the Clemson Club, either through an informal gathering or a formal reception, please let us know. This could include an educational lecture, tour of a facility, speaking at one of our Six Degrees of Clemson networking events (ask us, we’ll tell you more!), or coordinating with a faculty member from campus to come to our region.
Spread the word
Encourage others to become involved: As you run into Tigers at your kids’ school, church, the grocery store, or a restaurant, tell them about our club and encourage them to visit www.clemsonclub.org to learn more.
Post a Job or Internship
Is your company hiring? Post your local job/internship opportunity on ClemsonJobLink to connect with Clemson students and recent alumni. We have a dedicated “Tigers Go To Washington” page just for opportunities in our area. This page is available to any employer interested in hiring a Clemson student or alumni for a job or internship (paid or unpaid).

Don’t miss one of our favorite summer events – back for its 23rd year!
Held on the banks of the beautiful West River in Shady Side, MD, the menu for this all-you-can-eat Crab Feast also includes low country boil, hush puppies, hot dogs, beer and soda. Don’t be shy if you’ve never had crabs before – we’ll teach you to pick like a pro.
And there is more to do than just eat! Go for a swim in the pool, try to catch a few crabs yourself, take out a kayak or canoe or join a guided boat tour of the river. A huge thank you to Mark ‘91 and Cindy ‘90 Derrick for hosting.
