When a room is hot it is better to have the ceiling fan turned counter clockwise. This forces the air to blow down. In the winter the fan should turn clockwise to keep the warm air higher.

Does the ceiling fan go counter clockwise for summer use?

For summer use, the airflow should go down directly from the fan to the floor. For winter use it should pull the air from the floor towards the ceiling so it flows across the ceiling and around the room. So as to whether it should be clock-wise or counter clock-wise, that would depend on the angle of your blades. It's best to just stand under it when it's on. In the summer you should feel the air blowing on you from the fan and in the winter you shouldn't.
