On the third Friday of each March, the university’s Advancement Office invites grandparents, family members and guests of students to come to the Central campus for Grandparents Day, an activity-filled day devoted to making memories.
There were opportunities to take a bus tour of the historic Central campus, courtesy of Clemson Area Transit; attend classes together and dine together at the University Dining Commons; shop at the SWU Bookstore; grab a hot or cold drink at Blue Hill Coffee & Tea Co.; have photos taken with the SWU Warrior; and attend the spring musical “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown.”
Grandparents Day also offered informative seminars, including a “Provide and Protect” seminar by Sam Head of Carolinas Wealth Management. Also, Dr. Bruce Gay of the university’s Criminal Justice program gave an engaging presentation “Misconceptions and Myths in Criminal Justice,” and Dr. Debra Eischen of the School of Business presented “It’s a New Day: The Workplace of 2016.”
