Campus Highlights

Comprehensive Campaign
With phase one of the comprehensive campaign drawing to a close in December 2005, we are moving ever nearer our goal of $18 million. The fundraising efforts have focused on the following major components: Annual Fund, Programs, Facilities, and Endowment.

Stephanie SmithMusic Center
Construction workers have labored through the summer to transform the former Free Methodist Church into the Greenville College Music Center. Additional work will be needed to complete the third floor of the former education wing of the church, as funds become available. Greenville College seeks to honor one of the great patriarchs of the Greenville College choir and music program, Dr. James E. Wilson, by establishing the James E. Wilson Music Development Fund. This special fundraising effort will support the renovation of the new Music Center, as well as future development of the music program. Future plans include conversion of the church sanctuary into a recital hall, which will be named the James E. Wilson Recital Hall.

Soccer Fields
Greenville College has continued the expansion of the John M. Strahl Athletic Complex by recently breaking ground on a $140,000 addition south of Bowman Drive on the west side of Elm Street in Greenville. The college is constructing two soccer fields and a 100-space parking lot. Slated for use in August 2006, the facility will be named Andrews Fields.

Almira House
The Almira House restoration was completed in time for a dedication ceremony during Homecoming Weekend, October 21-23. The Greenville Women’s Club also honored the project this fall by presenting the college with a Restoration Award.
