Campus Hike

On the first day of Colloquium we went on a campus hike. We spent the second half of class walking around FGCU and our nature trails. I had been on a campus hike my first day of class in environmental biology of SWFL so I was already pretty educated on what FGCU has to offer. Our campus is very eco friendly and is “home” for so many plants and animals.

Many students at FGCU don’t even know that the campus nature trails exist. This is a great feature that many Florida Universities don’t have. Our campus is so beautiful and has the amenities of a country club for a University. The students at FGCU should feel privileged to have everything we have and take advantage of all the resources FGCU has to offer its students.

 Now that FGCU is building the food forest, and ultimately it is coming out of our tuition we as students should go and pick some of the food grown there. We are known for having the best of the best so I am sure that the products used for the food forest are great.

I do believe that FGCU should make the nature trails more public to the students. Maybe an ad in the eagle news, of flyers on campus would help more people know about the trails and use them. All in All, the campus hike was a great ending to the first day of Colloquium and I had learned something new, like I do everyday. :)
