CU 1000 changes to include mental health and recycling topics 
Clemson Undergraduate Student Government is collaborating with the University to add information about mental health resources on campus in the CU 1000 course, along with how recycling works on Clemson’s campus. The project is in the very beginning stages, according to Student Senator Leah Terry at the CUSG meeting on Oct. 3. 
The purpose of CU 1000, a pass/no pass course, is to introduce new students to Clemson’s student success resources along with community standards and values. CU 1000 is a hybrid course, meaning that some modules are completed online while others require in-person attendance, according to the Academic Success Center.
