Inclusive Culture
Clemson University’s College of Education requires incoming freshmen in the Teaching Fellows program to live in the Teaching Fellows Living-Learning Community. This residential community is designed to help students connect with others who have similar interests, provide additional support structures while completing Teaching Fellows requirements, allow students to build relationships outside of the academic environment, and provide a student-centered living and learning environment unique to students studying to be teachers.
What to Expect
The Teaching Fellows Program will include formalized activities and programming that extend beyond what is traditionally offered to teacher preparation students in the College of Education’s traditional programs. Required monthly meetings will be held throughout the school year and will cover topics such as advocacy, effective teaching practices, diversity, and leadership.

Seminars will serve to expose TF to trends and issues in public education, the qualities associated with effective leadership, instructional best practices and effective teaching, and education advocacy. Topics will include:
