Excited that the University is pursuing AAU.

Other than being attractive to the B1G, what does AAU status get Clemson?

Is it an automatic top 20 in university rankings or something? Does Clemson become an "elite" university academically? Seems like a lot of effort and money to me.

I know, right? Crazy for a A UNIVERSITY to try to improve its academic standing. 🧐

It’s more money in direct research funding and overhead because they encourage the aau schools to collaborate on proposals. We’ve been at a disadvantage as a relative newcomer research university, but you can literally see it getting better over the last 20 years.

That has always been the play. Elevate Clemson is directly tied to BIG

Didn’t seem to matter to the BIG when they took Nebraska, they are not AAU affiliated.

They were AAU when accepted. Have lost AAU status since.***
