Farwell started his career in higher education as the Assitant Director of Admissions and the Director of the Minority Service Center at Sangamon State University (now University of Illinois-Springfield). He then moved on to become the Assistant Dean of the College of Arts & Sciences at Washinton University in St. Louis.
