Does Clemson still bullish a yearbook?

We just moved, and found our TAPS from the late 80s/early 90s. When we asked our rising senior if she had ever gotten a yearbook photo taken, she looked at us like we were crazy.

When I was there, seemed like nobody got their picture taken.

I had no idea they stopped publishing their yearbook. My daughter graduated in 2012 I remember was so excited about it. Seems like the students will one day look back and regret not being able to reflect on the fun times they had st Clemson!

I think the end of TAPs started around 1990 or so

My freshman and sophomore TAPs were the traditional, big yearbooks. Then for some reason - I don't remember why, or maybe I never knew why - the 1990 (I think, give or take a year) yearbook was delayed significantly, and was subsequently much smaller, and I think when that delay happened, people started to not really care anymore.

But now with social media being so prevalent, it makes sense, but still sad that these generations won't have those TAPs on the bookshelves for the kids & grandkids to look at. All they'll have is all of mom's silly fish-lip kissy-face selfies.
