Guided by scholarship and research activities, the Task Force found it appropriate to rename the Lakeside Housing area, one that represents the Greenville Women's College, the Clark Murphy Housing Complex. As the first campus building to be named after a Black person, the renaming process of this site honors those who labored under unjustly conditions to build Furman.

The following photographs of the newly renamed Clark Murphy Housing Complex are part of the many actions Furman is taking to advance intergenerational justice in the campus landscape through the honoring of Clark Murphy, a beloved figure at the Greenville Women's College.

The seal mounted on the building's facade comes from the Greenville Women's College. The motto inscribed on the seal, which is older than any Furman motto, reads "Non Sine Pulvere," which translates to "Not Without Dirt." Not only does this motto speak for the women at GWC who found new ways to exert their freedom and agency, but also recognizes Murphy, for his critical role in the operations of the Greenville Woman's College.
