Events across campus on Wednesday included the annual “Clemson Car Smash” and “Tiger Burn.”
Students took turns smashing an orange and purple car at Swearingen Engineering Center in an event presented by Theta Tau, USC Counseling and Psychology Services and Gamecock Entertainment.
The Tiger Burn, meanwhile, took place later in the evening at Blatt Field.
Events are underway a week before the lead-up to the Palmetto Bowl so that students can participate before USC’s Thanksgiving recess begins on Sunday.
