Over the past 23 years, Francis Marion University, in partnership with the community, has undertaken one of the most ambitious building efforts of any comprehensive university in South Carolina. During that time, the university has built or extensively renovated 25 academic and instructional support buildings. This was accomplished without incurring any university debt or encumbering student tuition.
