Sophomore Year Advice

Posted on April 27, 2018August 22, 2018

Now that there’s only about 5 more days left of my sophomore year, I feel qualified to give this advice. However, I’m not the only one qualified, so I got some additional input from some great friends of mine from the sophomore class! (An idea I got from a graduating senior which goes along with…

Last Week of Class at Furman!

Posted on April 22, 2018September 18, 2018

A short week away from finishing my sophomore year, I thought I’d share some advice for the days leading up to finals! 1. Catch up on a few CLP’s. There isn’t much to do during the last day of class, so it’s a good time to get a last few CLPs in. 2. LDOC Party!…

Professors at Furman

Posted on April 13, 2018August 22, 2018

You can take hard classes and you can take easy classes, but despite the amount of work you have to do for a class, the professor really makes the experience. A good professor can turn a terribly boring subject into a valuable learning experience (and vice versa). The good news for you guys is that…

Things you should do before you move in (but may not think about).

Posted on April 4, 2018April 3, 2018

If you’re a rising college freshman, you have an awful lot on your mind. When you move in, you’re going to forget a few things regardless of how hard you try to get just everything in your car. That’s okay! But here are some things you may not think to bring or buy on move-in…

Things to do during the last few weeks of the school year!

Posted on March 16, 2018April 6, 2018

The hustle and bustle of the last month or so of the spring semester is inevitable, and it’s hard to fit all the things you want to do before summer into your schedule! But there are some really meaningful things that you do not want to miss out on! Make sure to get time with…

Managing Your Schedule Freshman Year

Posted on March 2, 2018March 1, 2018

In high school, your time is structured. All your classes are adjacent to each other and your extra curriculars often fall directly after classes or in the evening. While you may not know it now, your time is much more manageable in high school. When you come to college, your schedule will be largely spaced…

Research and Interactive Learning

Posted on February 23, 2018August 22, 2018

At Furman, research is an important part of our education. Every department incorporates it in some way or another and there are many active research projects going on at any given point. A large portion of the Furman Advantage is that it gives us the opportunity to do undergraduate research, providing students with an academic…

Bringing new programs to Furman!

Posted on February 23, 2018March 1, 2018

As a prospective Furman student, I’m sure you’re involved in a multitude of organizations and activities. Some of them are probably very meaningful to you and valuable when you consider which college to attend. The good news about Furman is that if you happen to come here and don’t find the exact program or activity…

Stages of First Exams

Posted on February 9, 2018February 15, 2018

There’s a week or two after about the first month of the semester is over when everyone starts having their first exams in their new classes. It isn’t midterms. It isn’t finals. It’s just everyone getting back to the unfortunate grind. The library starts filling up, people start spending their Saturdays studying, and you can…

Snow Days at Furman!

Posted on January 26, 2018January 25, 2018

Every year, if we’re lucky, we get a few snow days. Imagine Furman in its typical beauty, but blanketed in a few inches of snow (which is a lot for us). Classes get cancelled and we can spend the day walking around the lake, taking pictures, building snowmen, doing homework (I guess), etc. Everyone’s meetings…
