This summer, the William Hal Furr Student Experience in Religion Endowment—established in loving memory of former UM Philosophy & Religion professor William Hal Furr—funded its first cohort of students to work on Mapping Religious Diversity in Mississippi at Magnolia Grove Monastery.

Donors and alumni are invited to support the Endowment to create more opportunities like this for future students.
