The Furman Advantage strategic vision calls on us to seriously pursue community equity and campus diversity. As such, Furman has made an institutional commitment to scrutinize its practices and abolish those that undermine the values of diversity and equality, and is committed to expanding those that cultivate an environment that encourages the success of students, staff, and faculty.

Furman University affirms the view that creating and maintaining inclusive excellence is the responsibility of everyone in our community. Faculty and staff continually work on developing, evaluating and refining initiatives to foster equity and inclusion.
Chief Diversity Officer
The Chief Diversity Officer facilitates the support of structures that advance diversity and equity within campus units while collaborating across campus and with surrounding communities. Furman has announced plans for a Chief Diversity Officer transition.
