You can go to the Government website for official listing of what you are allowed to carry. Clemson folks are traveling on American Airlines, so you can go to AA.com, there is a link for what you are allowed to carry.
There are restrictions for your checked luggage, but those are rather easy to figure out - no explosives, that sort of thing.
As for your carry-on, the posters at Atlanta Airport tell you that you are not allowed more than 3 ounces of liquid. All carry-on toiletries must fit in a 1 quart zip-lock bag. If you have medications, it is a good idea to have them in your carry-on.
In my carry-on, I take one change of clothes. Luggage does sometimes get lost. I also carry with me a set of ear-plugs which help for sleeping on the plane. The other thing I carry is a water bottle. You can't carry liquid through the security gates, but you can re-fill it once you are in the gate area. Fill it and carry it with you on the plane. Carry your important papers with you, don't put them in your checked luggage.
Get on the plane, eat the meal, and go to sleep. As exciting as it is to be on a plane heading to Germany, the ride is not as exciting as what you will experience there. Sleep on the plane so you will be able to enjoy at least part of your first day in Germany.

If you are taking items requiring electricity (iPod charger, hair dryer...), you will need a plug adapter. You can find these with the luggage at Target for about $10.
