A thread: When I started working from home on Tuesday, March 17th, my colleagues learned of one of the framed posters on my wall during our morning Google Hangouts. So, for amusement, I decided to switch out the artwork every workday for our morning meetings. (1/X)
A downside of newsroom hangout calls amid coronavirus is everyone seeing what my morning hair looks like. An upside is seeing @JoeBReporter's giant framed Barenaked Ladies poster.

Choosing his replacement may have some political ramifications too because some conservative lawmakers have been critical of Clemson and its administration in recent months.
Clemson president Jim Clements' retirement comes as a bit of a surprise ... He's 61 and signed a contract extension through 2031 last year. Outside of university implications, that's a notable change for athletics -- Clements is heavily involved in sports, recruiting, etc
