Jewish Life at Clemson

Student Lounge College Life
1

Hey,

I just finished my sophomore year at Elon at was accepted to Clemson as a transfer. I dont hate Elon but I would love to have a school bigger sports presence. Clemson seems like a great fit with one exception. Ive read that only about 1% of the population is Jewish, so I was wondering what life for a Jewish student would be like there. Im not overly religious and am not overly concerned with meeting other Jews, but I would like to know that there are a few others and that I wont get looked at or treated like im crazy. So if anyone has any incite on this, itd be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Clemson is predominantly Protestant Christian, but that’s going to be true for most Southern schools, unfortunately.
However, there is a well-established Jewish student group called Hillel if you are interested in campus involvement of some sort.
