Cox Plaza

Cox Plaza is located between Tillman Hall and the Edgar A. Brown University Union. The plaza is a popular meeting spot and is home to the University’s Organizations Day in the fall and spring. The Plaza is named for President Emeritus Walter T. Cox, a member of Clemson’s Class of 1939 and the third alumnus to rise to the status of president (1985-1986). Dean Cox served Clemson in almost every role imaginable, from an offensive guard for the football team while a student to the football team’s line coach, from the baseball coach and ticket manager to an assistant to the president and director of alumni affairs, and from dean of students to vice president for student affairs.
