Major: Religion/Religious (This Major's Salary over time)
I have grown immensely, in social, personal, and intellectual ways here at Furman. I absolutely love my major, and feel incredibly lucky to have found something I love to do. I plan to attend graduate school for religion next year, and feel quite prepared for any of the rigorous programs to which I have applied. The faculty are great, as they try to get to know students on a personal level, often having classes and clubs over to their houses for dinners, etc. Some people look down on the social life at Furman, and maybe if you're the type of person who wants a variety of huge parties to choose from every night, you might be out of luck, but there are plenty of things to do around here, from 1 or 2 frat parties per weekend, if that's what you're into, to great restaurants, bars, coffee shops downtown, movies, plays, and concerts both on campus and off. I find plenty to do, plus, campus housing is great, with almost-luxiourious on-campus apartments for juniors and seniors, so housing lends itself very well to entertaining on-campus. Come visit to really get a feel for the place!
