“Melvin and Dollie have been tremendous supporters of various institutions and initiatives throughout the Upstate including Furman University, North Greenville University, Columbia College, Greenville Technical College, the Younts Performing Arts Center and the Kerry Ann Younts Culp Library in their hometown of Fountain Inn,” President James P. Clements said. “We’re thankful for their support of our athletics programs and the impact their gift will have on student-athletes and Clemson fans for generations to come.
