Furman News
As a partner and chief diversity and inclusion officer of a law firm with clients worldwide, Yendelela Neely Holston ’03 gets hundreds of emails a day. But when one arrives from a furman.edu address, it stands out from the pile.
“I have a special place in my heart for students who have the courage to reach out,” says Holston from her office at the Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton law firm in Atlanta. “I never reached out to alums as a student; I always thought it was a bother. But I admire people who do, and I want to encourage that type of behavior as a life skill.”
