Mentor in a Manual, in its 3rd edition, has been a trusted guide for many new faculty members as they begin their academic careers. it is often used as a parting gift to graduates from advisors or major professors. And it serves as a resource for senior faculty as they practice their own mentoring.

Clay was also involved in ecology issues, as he said long before they were known as ecology. He was the founding executive editor of "The Journal of Environmental Education" and presented classes and seminars across the United States.
