Introduction: Hey y'all I'm Dylan from Knoxville, TN. I'm currently a genetics major with plans to minor in both physics and Spanish. I'm a big NBA, CBB, and NFL guy and love talking about those leagues. I plan to go to medical school and become a surgeon.
Ask me about...: Undergraduate research, football, social life, Honors perks, EUREKA!, intramural sports, parking, classes, or anything else you want to know. Always feel free to reach out, and I can promise you that I'll respond quickly.
My advice for prospective students: You're going to find your fit, whether that be at Clemson or not. I have the privilege to show you the benefits that Clemson Honors can provide to you as a student. I came to Clemson and fell in love, but that may not be your story, and that's ok. Trust me, I know the decision is hard, but I know you'll be able to find your home.
My advice for current students: Take Honors classes. They provide you with smaller class sizes and some of the best professors that Clemson has to offer. They are NOT harder by any means. If anything, they are advantageous by allowing you to get to know your professor rather than just aimlessly sitting in the back of a lecture hall.
Why I chose Clemson and the Honors College: Clemson is a beautiful place that has felt like a home with the best atmosphere I saw of everywhere I went, and believe me I went far. The Honors College has provided me with numerous opportunities to get involved with research and live in some of the nicest and most updates facilities in the southeast.
My favorite thing about the Honors College: The study halls at the end of the Honors residence halls allow me to hang out with friends and knock out some homework at the same time.
If I could travel anywhere: Take me to Latin America, so I can practice my Spanish, immerse myself in a different culture, and enjoy some delish food.
My favorite Clemson class: Physics 1220. The class has opened up my mind, allowing me to think about complex problems in different and creative ways.
What makes me happy to be alive: Basketball
What did you do this summer?: Worked on a golf course and became a CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant).
What are your plans after graduation?: Medical school to become a surgeon.
