POSTS STORIES REELS

Why do we need historians?

History is more than just understanding the past. It helps us recognize the stories that shaped our communities, learn from those who came before us, and better understand the world around us.

In celebration of ACLS On the Inside: Academic Institutions and Societies Week, we’re highlighting Completing Clemson’s History, a Clemson University Press publication that reminds us why preserving and sharing history matters.

Historians help ensure that important stories are uncovered, voices are heard, and our understanding of the past continues to grow.

Happy Open Access Week!

At Clemson University Press, we believe knowledge should be accessible to everyone. Open Access publishing helps break down barriers by making scholarly research and publications freely available to readers around the world.

We’re proud to support this mission through our Open Access publications, including International Yeats Studies, Journal of Youth Development, and Manhattan Transfer by John Dos Passos.

This week, we’re celebrating the power of sharing knowledge, expanding access, and making academic research available beyond the classroom!

Meet Gloria, our Production Editor at Clemson University Press!

Gloria first joined the Press as a graduate assistant in 2022 and has continued to grow with us ever since. Today, she helps bring our books to life by overseeing copyediting, typesetting, proofs, author coordination, and the many details that take a project from manuscript to publication.

For Gloria, publishing is about more than books, it’s about preserving history, sharing knowledge, and amplifying voices. Her favorite CU Press title is Hawk by Vivian Ayers, and her favorite part of working at the Press is the people (with our taco parties coming in a close second).

We’re so lucky to have Gloria on our team and can’t wait to see where her continued journey in publishing takes her! by @clemson_up

Meet Dr. Andrew Dorkin, Clemson University Press's acquisitions editor! His path into publishing was what he calls a "happy accident." After studying poetry, earning his undergraduate degree from Illinois Wesleyan University and a Ph.D. in English Literature from the University at Buffalo, and spending ten years as a professor, he found the perfect opportunity at Clemson University Press.

His favorite part of the job is working with authors at the proposal stage, helping shape ideas into books, and watching those projects come to life. He also enjoys discovering new perspectives by reading work from fields he might never have explored otherwise.

Happy National Blue Cheese Day to all who celebrate!

Starting in 1941, blue cheese was cured in the Stumphouse Tunnel in Clemson. In 1951, Clemson purchased the tunnel to protect the blue cheese tradition, and in 1958, the University moved production to Newman Hall on Clemson's campus.

Take a look at Tastes of Clemson Blue Cheese, the perfect recipe book for any Clemson fan or blue cheese lover! It's available for purchase through the link in our bio.
