James Bowers: Clemson University — ClemsonLIFE (Rowan Eichler Scholarship Award)

James is a two-time Rockin’ Recipient beginning his sophomore year at Clemson University’s ClemsonLIFE program, where he’s working toward his dream of living independently and one day working in a coffee shop. He is excited to keep learning new skills while making the most of college life. 

One of James’s proudest accomplishments is speaking at a county council meeting to advocate for public transportation after funding was threatened. He has also discovered a love for cooking in his apartment and enjoys preparing meals as part of his daily routine. 

When he’s not studying, James loves listening to Bluegrass music and dancing. He’s made many new friends in college and brings energy, kindness, and enthusiasm to every space he’s in. James is rocking his ClemsonLIFE journey, and we can’t wait to see all the incredible things ahead for him!
