There are only two more class days until LDOC (Last Day of Classes)! Wow, time has really flown by. While it is oh-so-exciting that summer is just around the corner, we have to make it over the hurdle that is finals.

My Top 5 Classes at Furman
***in no particular order*** Brand Design This class is an upper level art class that focuses on building out a brand concept. We had to design logo and create a sports team. I loved this class because of the mix of creativity and strategy as well as the small size. I have made several friends…
The Furman Community is Real

When I began to look at Furman, I thought Greenville, South Carolina would be a similar small town with nothing spectacular. Boy, was I wrong. Greenville, South Carolina has become my home. From…
When I Grow Up: Choosing a Major at Furman
When I came to college, I thought all of my big decisions were finished, but I had forgotten about picking my major. I was a freshman with no clue what I wanted to do when I grew up, but thankfully, at Furman, that is okay. One of the best things about Furman is that it…
