The Bells of Clemson
The Clemson University Memorial Carillon was dedicated on October 18, 1987, completing a two-year fund raising and building process that was spearheaded by Rembert "Red" Horton (Class of 1930) and family. In 1985, the Hortons supported the founding and installation of six bronze bells known as Clemson University Victory Peal. The motorized bells were heard signaling the start of each academic year and after each home football victory. Soon after the bells' installation, the Class of 1943 embraced the vision of a grand instrument located in the heart of Clemson University. Members of that class purchased the largest bell (approximately 4386 pounds) and proudly named it "BIG C." Through the generosity of many others in the Clemson family, 39 additional bells were acquired to form the carillon.
The Bells were cast by the Paccard Fonderie de Cloches in Annecy-le-Vieux, France, one of Europe's oldest founderies. The carillon's design and casting was coordinated by Van Bergen Bellfounderies, Inc. in Charleston South Carolina.
