Clemson's September Citizen-of-the-Month

Our office received many nominations and heard a lot of great stories of Clemson students demonstrating the Clemson core values. While we wish we could honor all of our nominees, there was one nomination that stood out from the rest. Thank you to all of our nominees for their service to Clemson.

However, I hope the entire Clemson community will join me in congratulating Tyler Graham, freshman student at Clemson University, as our Citizen-of-the-Month. Here is the nomination letter: 

"Just wanted to submit the name of Tyler Graham, a student at Clemson for his good deed done today. Tyler called our home phone looking for a 'Michael Speer' which happens to be both my husband and son's name. Tyler had found our son's ATM card and was hoping to return it to him. My son promptly received a call from Tyler and was able to retrieve his debit card within about 10 minutes of my call from Tyler. So nice to know the Clemson community is made up of fine, honest students like Tyler."

Submitted by Barb Speer, a Clemson parent.

This is just another example that Clemson students strive to live the Clemson core values and consistently make the right choices. Tyler thank you for your service to the Clemson community. Special thanks from the Office of Community and Ethical Standards, the Community Educators, and the Division of Student Affairs. When you see Tyler, roaming on campus please be sure to congratulate him.
