Vision 2020

A Strategic Plan For Furman University

"I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving. To reach the port of heaven, we must sometimes sail with the wind and sometimes against it; but we must sail and not drift, nor lie at anchor."  - Oliver Wendell Holmes
