I think it would be good for campus and good for the community." -- Avery Blandin, Facility Services
		"Overall, it’s very positive. Having the Falcons here generates a whole lot of work that involves a lot of Furman people. There’s a lot that needs to be done to take care of their needs." -- Candy Brandenburg, Mail Services
	"I think it’s a great idea. It would represent a steady revenue stream, which is always good. And surely it helps us recruit in the Atlanta area. I say bring them on." -- Jim Edwards, Philosophy	.
		"Things have changed a whole lot since they were here before, but from what I have heard Furman and the Falcons seem to be a good fit. They get use of our facilities and we benefit from the publicity. There also seems to be very little conflict on classroom space." -- Steve Richardson, Library
	"I think it’s good for Furman to be involved with this. It gives us positive exposure and brings people on campus." -- Karen Duncan, Financial Services
