FGCU Alumni Weekend
February 9-11, 2012

Join us...

It's time to come home to FGCU to celebrate Alumni Weekend. Join fellow Eagles for this annual tradition. While we are at it, let's honor the five- and ten- year reunions of the classes of 2002 and 2007!

 Weekend Events:

Thursday, February 9

You Call This Art
6 p.m., Arts Complex main gallery

Come discover the latest exhibit at the FGCU Art Gallery. It is the closing night of You Call This Art, a collection of modern and contemporary works curated by Susan Brown of Alan Brown Gallery. Including works by Robert Rauschenberg, Andy Warhol, Annie Liebovitz and Jim Dine. Once it's gone, it's gone!

Friday, February 10

More to Etiquette than a Knife and Fork
12 p.m., Career Development Services

Back by popular demand Nonnie Owens will continue to teach you on business etiquette. We can all use a refresher course and this is one that will leave a lasting impression. Students will also be in attendance, so come and see what it is like to be a student on campus compared to when you were here! Appetizers and refreshments will be served. Thank you to Gartner for sponsoring this event.

Rediscover Campus
2 p.m., Meet at the Sugden Welcome Center

FGCU is changing at a fast pace. Come learn about the new additions and student hangouts. You will be amazed at the variety of eateries, the technology in the classrooms and what students now call home. Meet at the Sugden Welcome Center for a guided walking and bus tour.

Eagle Night Out
