Planning Committees
The advisory board and steering committee ensured that the new complex will provide exemplary space for teaching and learning, and that it will serve Furman students and alumni and, through them, society at large.
Science Advisory Board
As a student at Furman I saw new worlds opened by interesting science professors, teaching under one roof. This encouraged interdisciplinary thinking, which was important in my own research later on and led me to ‘connect the pieces’ as I worked to develop the maser and laser.
