The Clemmer College at East Tennessee State University is home to programs of study that focus on improving the lives of individuals through teaching and learning, physical and mental health, and leadership. In addition to the six academic departments of the college, a K-12 laboratory school and four Centers of Excellence (Community College Leadership, Early Childhood Learning & Development, Mathematics & Science Education and Sport Science & Coach Education) provide opportunities for research and professional outreach.
Clemmer College "Improving Lives" is a podcast about what happens when higher education meets service in the Appalachian Highlands. Join us for Episode 1: Access ETSU featuring Dr. Cindy Chambers and Dr. Dawn Rowe.

Welcome to Clemmer College

The college is named for Claudius G. Clemmer, a former teacher, successful business
and civic leader, and lifelong benefactor and champion for education. During the Great
Depression, with no money to support his one-room schoolhouse in Greene County, Clemmer
taught his 30 students without pay so they could continue their studies. Scholarships
established by Clemmer and his wife, Katherine, continue to support new generations
of education students who will carry the same dedication to service into their own
professional careers.
The faculty and staff of the Clemmer College welcome you to our website and are happy to help you in your
educational journey. Please contact us if we can be of assistance with questions about
our programs and how you can be a part of the Clemmer Community.
