Tavaris Barnes


Feb 8, 2012, 1:39 PM

Had the chance to speak to a group of CU students at work today. It was mostly students in the hospitality program who had come to tour our facilities here at work, and myself and another Clemson Alum had the opportunity to speak with them about what we do on a day-to-day basis. There were three football players in the group, Nuk, Tra Thomas, and Tavaris Barnes. Tavaris approached me afterwards, introduced himself, and just wanted to talk a bit more about the program at Clemson and go into a little more detail about the hospitality industry. He was overly polite, asked a lot of questions about our jobs, and was just in general a pleasure to talk to. Sometimes when we see these guys from the stands or on TV, we forget that they're kids just trying to get an education and make their way in the world. This conversation reminded me of that, and it also reminded me of the fact that it takes a special type of person to be a Tiger and to represent our great university.

Just wanted to pass that along.
