Students, faculty and staff celebrated the completion of Phase 2 of the Cohen Student Union renovations with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on March 17.

The renovations enhanced and refreshed student spaces with new conference-style rooms and updated seating areas.

In collaboration with Student Government, the renovations also introduced improvements to the Cohen Student Union lawn area, creating a more engaging and functional outdoor space for students.

A large group of FGCU employees and students stand together inside the Cohen Student Union main entrance at a ribbon‑cutting event while doing the Wings Up sign. A blue, green, white, and gold balloon display is visible behind them.
