Introduction: Hey Y’all! My name is Abigail Dills and I am a management major from Gastonia, NC. I love country music, true crime documentaries, going to Clemson football games, and late night ice cream runs with my friends!
Why I chose Clemson and the Honors College: After graduating high school with a class of only 35 students, I was worried about the transition to a much bigger university. I picked the Honors College because I felt it would be the perfect close community within the much larger Clemson family to make this transition easier. In addition, the Honors College stood out to me because I was seeking an academically challenging environment that also provided me with plenty of resources to make the most of my four years at school. I chose Clemson because my Dad has been a Clemson Football fan my entire life and I fell in love with the university after my first time on campus freshman year of high school.
My involvement in the Honors College: I am an Honors Student Ambassador and have also taken several Honors seminars.
My involvement in Clemson University: I am a member of Clemson Rotaract Club and look forward to becoming involved with more organizations on campus.
My favorite Clemson class: "Info Technology and Prejudice," an Honors seminar I took freshmen year. This class encouraged deep conversation and pushed me to pursue knowledge about subjects I had never previously considered. The class was mainly discussion based, which allowed me to hear all sides of every argument and bring to light new topics I had yet to explore. Overall, the course challenged me by requiring me to truly get a strong grip on the material to be able to contribute to class discussion. I left the class with a new lens to see the world through and would recommend the course to anyone looking for an engaging and enriching Honors seminar!
