A tighter Oconee connection with a major university

Dari McBride, the new executive director of the Oconee Chamber of Commerce, welcomes Clemson University as a platinum investor in her organization.  And, she believes, it’s a sign that Clemson wants to further engage with the Oconee community.  In recent years, a number of prominent Oconeeans  have wished for greater involvement by the university in a county which, until 60 years back, was part of the county’s geography — until a controversial annexation move put an end to that.
