Second Century Society - 2/4/25

Have you heard of the Second Century Society? If you’ve been a past member, you already know what a great opportunity this club offers for keeping in touch with Clemson University.

If you aren’t a past member, let me fill you in: In 1989, a dedicated group of Clemson alumni and friends in the Columbia area formed an organization called The Second Century Society. Their goal was to provide a forum for Clemson to share its message with alumni and friends of Clemson. It is a networking opportunity as well as an opportunity to learn what is going on in the academic and research fields at our school and what you can do to help Clemson accomplish its mission. Membership is open to all that share an interest in Clemson.

Please mark your calendars for Tuesday, February 4 for our third lunch of the 2024/2025 season. We will hear from Rick Barth, Director of Undergraduate Admissions.

Our meeting will be held at The Hall at Senate’s End, 316 Senate Street, Columbia, SC 29201. While we are still building out the speaker schedule for the 2024/2025 season, we will meet on the following Tuesdays:

• February 4, 2025 | Rick Barth, Director of Undergraduate Admissions
• April 8, 2025 | Speaker TBD
• May 6, 2025 | Dr. Barbara Speziale, Director of CI & Undergraduate Research & Associate Director of the Watt Family Innovation Center
