Furman University

Campus

A 30-acre (0.1-km²) lake is at the center of the 750-acre (3-km²), wooded Furman University campus. Many academic buildings and student residences stand around the lake, including the Belltower. The Belltower figures highly in school insignias and is a replica (within 1/16th of an inch) of the Belltower that once existed on the men's campus in downtown Greenville. Today, the campus is anchored by its newly expanded 128,000 square foot (12,000 m²) Duke library.

Students are required to live on campus all four years. There are two residence complexes (called Lakeside and South Housing). Most junior and all seniors live in North Village Apartments, located near the Belltower.
