About Me

My name is Travis Ard. I was born and raised in the small town of North, South Carolina. I am an Agricultural Education major working on my bachelors degree and i plan on staying in school to get my masters. When i get out of school i want to teach at a high school somewhere in South Carolina.
I enjoy hunting and fishing. Fishing is by far my favorite past time. I have been to Lake Okeechobee in Florida fishing, where we stayed in the Roland Martin resort. I have caught just about every fish possible to catch in South Carolina waters. Some of the biggest fish i have caught are a 200 lb. Bull shark, A 55 lb blue catfish, and a 35 lb flathead catfish. Bass are my favorite species to fish for. I still haven't caught one to put on the wall yet though.
I also like to spend time with my family when i get a chance to be home. I am very close to my little brother. We party together whenever we get the chance. Other than hangin out with my family there is really nothing to do in my hometown. I think that is why i enjoy being in Clemson so much. If i could i would be a student for a career. But since that can't happen, i guess i have to find something else to do.

I think Ag Ed is one of the most important subjects for high schools. Aside from how much our country needs individuals who understand how to provide healthy food sources, working with kids to help them learn to do something with their hands (as well as their heads) is so important when education is so focused on standardized testing, which has very little personal meaning to the kids. Good luck getting out there in a few years and making a huge difference in your future students' lives!
