The gift comes from Alec and Susan Taylor of Charleston. Alec Taylor is a 1975 Furman graduate and has been a member of the university\u2019s Board of Trustees since 2012. Poverty Studies, which explores the effects and causes of poverty and its potential solutions, is the most popular minor at Furman. With approximately 90 students expected to be enrolled in the program by the end of this academic year, Poverty Studies is by far the largest minor, and is larger than almost all of Furman\u2019s 47 majors."}
