Chowan University is a four-year co-education intuition. It is the second oldest of North Carolina's seven Baptist Colleges. Chowan opened in 1848 as a four year college for women, Chowan Baptist Female institute. It was renamed Chowan College in 1910, admitted male students in 1931, and established itself as one of the leading junior colleges in the South in 1937. In 1992 the college returned to four year status. In April of 2006 Chowan President, Dr. M. Christopher White announced the changing of the institutions name from Chowan College to Chowan University. The University fulfills its mission with a careful blend of both liberal arts and professional courses. Recognizing that such a blend of knowledge and experience is particularly suited to the needs of contemporary society. Chowan takes as priority the need to connect general education with specialized education, theoretical learning with practical learning, and intellectual skills with vocational skills. Set amid 300 acres of woodlands embracing beautiful Lake Vann, Chowan’s main entrance leads gracefully around a college green to an antebellum mansion known as the McDowell Columns Building. Sixteen major buildings of contemporary design provide air-conditioned residence, academic and recreational facilities. The small-town university campus attracts students from at least twenty seven states and several countries each year. The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools fully accredits Chowan University to offer the bachelor’s degree.

GO HAWKS
Taylor Furlough enters his fourth season at the helm of the Chowan University baseball program. The Hawks finished the 2013-14 season with an 18-26 overall record and 15-5 finish in CIAA play with several players earning CIAA acco-lades. Two players earned First Team honors, three were tabbed to the All-CIAA Second Team, and three garnered All-Rookie recognition, highlighted by Tanner Woods earn-ing Rookie of the Year honors. In his second season as head coach, Furlough guided the Hawks to a 21-27 overall record, and second place finish at the CIAA Championship. Under Furlough’s direction, the Hawks had two players named to the CIAA All-Rookie Team, a CIAA Second Team selection, and four players named to the CIAA All-Tournament Team. In his first season Furlough led the Hawks to a 25-23 rec-ord. Prior to being named head coach, Furlough served as an assistant coach under Aaron Carroll. In Furlough's first season as assistant coach (2008), he helped the Hawks to the most successful season in program history after posting a 36-20 record. That season, Chowan garnered a NCCAA South Region Championship and finished in fourth place at the NCCAA National Championship Tournament. In 2011, Furlough helped Chowan gain their sixth winning season in the last seven years. Furlough worked with the Hawks pitching staff and helped produce All-CIAA perform-ers Brett Garrett, Ryan Moore, and John DesChamps in 2011. Furlough is no stranger to the Chowan baseball program after playing four seasons under Aaron Carroll. As part of the pitching staff in 2005, he helped the Hawks to an ap-pearance at the NCCAA World Series. That same season, Furlough posted a team-low 1.20 ERA with a 4-1 record and five saves. Furlough then spent two seasons on the Chowan football staff as an offensive backs and wide re-ceivers coach prior to being hired by Carroll in January of 2008. Furlough is a native of Columbia, North Carolina and was a standout football and baseball player at Columbia High School. He received his B.A. in Mathematics from Chowan in 2005. He is married to Stephanie Myane Furlough, a 2008 Chowan graduate. The two have an infant daughter, Lennox, and they reside in Murfreesboro.

Chowan University stands in the
old Albemarle region of North
Carolina between the Roanoke and
Chowan Rivers in the northeast corner
of the state. The Murfreesboro area
was first settled during the sixteenth
and seventeenth centuries, when the
principal inhabitants were several
Indian Tribes such as the Chowanokes.
Today, the stately old homes seem to
whisper of the storied colonial and
antebellum days.
Murfreesboro is located approximately
60 miles from Norfolk, Virginia and 120
miles from Raleigh, North Carolina.
Murfreesboro is the location of the
boyhood home of Dr. Walter Reed,
discoverer of the cure for yellow fever,
and home to Richard Jordan Gatling,
the inventor of the Gatling Gun. Tours
and special events are offered
throughout the year by local groups.
