About a year ago I was called a troll, among other things, when I stated Furman’s enrollment was and has been lower than publicly advertised. Simply reading spun numbers on a website doesn’t make it fact, as many apparently have believed. FU has had under enrollment issues for almost five years now, and it’s caused financial issues that are being felt in every part of the university. I’ve been told the “target” enrollment is now 2,650, which would represent approximately a 15 percent increase over where it has been for several years.
