During the Feb. 13 Clemson Undergraduate Student Government meeting, it was discussed that the inflation percentages for Clemson Housing and Dining Services had been changed to account for the next academic school year.
There will be a 3.4% price inflation increase for all housing costs for students living on campus, along with a 4% increase for dining services in the next academic year for all undergraduate students, according to Kathy Hobgood, the associate vice president for auxiliary enterprises.
“The inflation percentages are pretty normal, and it happens usually every school year to account for inflation and other exterior factors,” Hobgood said. “These percentages are a decent percentage, but this ensures the numbers for next semester.”
In addition, plans for the future of Thornhill Village will be coming, as Clemson Home plans to redesign the units to be multiple stories with more allocated to students living on campus.
