Guiding Principles

As Clemson Cooperative Extension works to fulfill our vision and mission, a set of seven fundamental principles guide our decisions. We believe that these guiding principles are more than just words - they are our North Star. We all own them. They embody the unified culture we expect; the spirit of unity we have, and our sincere dedication to doing what's right for each other, for our Clients and for Clemson University.  They are the foundation of what makes Clemson unique – the purpose, the power, and the privilege of being a Clemson Tiger.
