Winter 2007
Economics graduate Trent Allen and marketing
graduate Kevin Bray have collaborated on a beautiful new coffee-table
book: Clemson — There’s Something in These Hills.
Over 400 photographs help tell the story of the founding of the college, the friendships that exemplify the spirit of Clemson, and the challenges and triumphs that have made it a nationally recognized university.
Allen (left), the principal author, has lived in Clemson since he was four years old when his father, Joe, was hired as a chemistry professor. He founded Allens’ Creations Inc. — Frame and Art Gallery with his mother, Doris, in the 1970s. For Bray, the principal photographer, the book is the culmination of several years of picture-taking in and around the campus and town. It also contains a wealth of historical photos. Allen and Bray involved current students by working with the University’s graphic communications department. For more information, go to www.forthillpress.com.
