Statewide Interest: |
This project will advance funding and thus the costruction of additional classroons on hte FGCU campus. FGCU's growth has been both steep and steady over its short history since opening in 1997. Enrollment increased by 19% in FTE and 28% in headcount over the past year 2004-2005. As these significant enrollment increases continue to occur, there continues to be a critical shortage of classrooms, offices and laboratory space for new faculty and students. |
