"We are excited that Clemson University is a part of the MTV Campus Invasion Tour." Marty Kern, director of Major Events said. "This concert is a great reward for our students who have worked hard on the Campus Sweep project and it is also a chance to open our doors to the public to show off all that hard work." Campus Sweep is an annual event organized by Student Governement leaders to engage hundreds of Clemson Students to complete beautification projects around campus.
