Clemson's Cooperative Extension Service, with agents and offices in every county, has become a source of ideas as well. Working on these projects has a reality level that is quite different from working on a made-up project in the classroom. When the plans and drawings are completed and the public presentation is made, there is often a celebratory air at town hall. Citizens involved in the process see their visions for their town come to life in the full-color drawings presented by Clemson students. Local officials get a head start on the details of renovation at minimal cost.
Local newspapers feature the students and their work in front-page stories.
And plans created by Clemson students become the visible evidence of education at work. These pages were designed for Netscape 2.0 and higher.
