📰 News we're reading

1. Clemson University Dedicates Forestry and Environmental Conservation Building (tradelineinc.com) — Clemson residents now have a major new academic landmark: the $68.3 million Forestry and Environmental Conservation Building on campus, dedicated in September. The timber-rich, sustainability-focused facility brings modern labs, classrooms, and outdoor learning spaces that double as a living laboratory, strengthening Clemson’s role in forestry, wildlife, and environmental education while reshaping a former parking lot into a greener hub.
   

2. Clemson University Band Will Not Travel With Football Team to Most Away Games Due to Budget Cuts (athleticbusiness.com) — If you follow Clemson football, expect a quieter sound on most distant road games: budget cuts mean the Tiger band will no longer fly to faraway ACC opponents like Cal and Syracuse. The band will still likely travel by bus to closer games such as Florida State and Duke, and postseason trips could be funded, but regular-season away atmospheres will feel very different for Clemson fans and students.
   

3. Beware of Snapchat scams targeting students (clemson.edu) — Clemson students are being targeted by Snapchat scams that hijack Clemson.edu email accounts to post fake offers for jobs, money deals, or football tickets in Clemson-only channels. You’re urged to verify posts through official Clemson contacts, never pay for job opportunities, guard personal information, and check any linked social accounts if your Clemson password is ever reset.
   

4. Students FAQs Division of Student Affairs, Clemson University, South Carolina (clemson.edu) — If you’re a Clemson student dealing with illness, family emergencies, or extended absences, the Office of Advocacy and Success in Hendrix Student Center is your first stop for help. Staff can coordinate support after accidents or deaths, guide you on absence notifications, and explain options like incomplete grades, while reminding you it’s still your responsibility to communicate clearly with professors.
   

5. Clemson Title IX Case Heads to South Carolina Supreme Court (lamag.com) — A high-stakes Title IX case involving a former Clemson University student is now headed to the South Carolina Supreme Court, with Clemson’s 2016 disciplinary findings at the center of the legal fight. The justices will decide whether campus Title IX rulings can effectively bind future civil juries, a question that could shape how Clemson students’ disciplinary cases echo through the courts for years.
