About Shucker Center for Leadership Development

Named in honor of Dr. Harry B. Shucker, Furman’s former Vice President for Student Life, the center empowers students to become leaders by facilitating opportunities for intentional learning, self-reflection, and skill development. We believe in developing authentic, visionary, goal-driven, action-oriented and resilient student leaders who exhibit an awareness of self and others. Our programs include the Shucker Fellows Program, the Furman Circle of Omicron Delta Kappa (ODK), the Furman Student Leadership Awards, Strengths at Furman programming, and Team Building Services for the Furman community.
