I want to swap a flourescent light ran on a 3 way with a ceiling fan. I have 3 wire already ran between the 2 switches for the 3 way light but I need to add a switch so I can control the fan and light separately. I would like to keep the light kit portion still workable for 3 way but the fan doesn't need to be.

And it goes to one of the switches. I would recommend changing that switch box to a double box, and then running a switch leg up to the fan this will supply control to the fan. Control over the light will stay the same.
