Communications & Marketing
Our Mission
An essential part of Clemson’s land-grant mission is imparting research-based information to an array of constituencies throughout the state and communicating the impact our research, teaching and Extension programming has on the citizens of South Carolina.
To that end, our Communications Team offers services in the areas of news writing and dissemination; print publication design; graphic design; web development, training, design and consultation; social media strategy; marketing and branding; media relations; display and conference booth design; and digital media and video production.
Let us help you tell the world about the great work you do!

My first “real job” after college was working in the advertising department for the (then) Anderson Independent-Mail. After a brief time there, I was hired as a graphic designer with the Agriculture Communications department. Someone once told me “you’ll be a lifer” and I guess it’s true. This year, the infamous 2020 will be my 31st here at Clemson. I’m the last one of that original department, but love the new communications team I work with. I love graphic design and, after all the new technology, I still love the feel of paper. My main job is graphic design for print publications, but am doing more online publications as well.
