Tillman Hall; An Iconic Structure

As I walked around campus this week, I looked at Tillman and thought about the commanding presence that it has on Clemson. Tillman Hall is a structure that is like and equation to Clemson, in my opinion. This one building can be seen from multiple points around the campus, which may lend credit to its iconic nature. For most of the people I've talked with, they easily recognize the bell tower as a familiar place and that has been the meeting spot when I've had visitors come. Even as I came here as a freshman, not knowing much about my surroundings, I knew that if I could get back to Tillman, that I was at a starting point. As a Clemson student, I think that Clemson has gained recognition because Tillman Hall is used to define the school, just as much as Death Valley, the football team, and the academic standards. Tillman Hall is the equivalent to a key on a map when a person is navigating in and around the campus of Clemson.
