Ms. Sidney Elizabeth Coker
I had always heard Francis Marion University was a great school to attend. I have family members who are alumni, including my dad. My whole experience at FMU left me feeling changed in a lot of ways. I met some of my best friends at FMU. My favorite professor was Dr. Sarah Kershner, my advisor […]
Lezlie Yaeger
My career has taken a different path, but my experiences, classwork, and professors definitely helped me frame my mindset so that I could always be a leader in whatever industry I pursued.

Mrs. Stephanie Forte
I started out at Francis Marion University with the intention of transferring out, which never happened. I wanted to start small and maybe branch out to a larger school… but once I got there, I actually really, really enjoyed being there on campus and everything. I liked my instructors and the people that I met, […]
Mr. Alan L. Gibbons
Dr. Morgan Coker was a big influence on me attending Francis Marion University. He was chairman of the Business Department at the time. He told me that FMU would be a great place for me to go. His family was from the Turbeville, SC area, which was my area of Clarendon County, so that was […]
