MAJOR RENOVATIONS
This included major renovations to Ponce Hall’s historic residential wings, redesigns in Lewis and Cedar Halls, and even a kayak launch onto the San Sebastian River at Abare Hall. Some of the residential enhancements included modernized rooms, flooring and furniture, the addition of common and study areas, kitchen spaces and laundry rooms. Flagler’s Learning Resource Center also moved into an expanded space in the Proctor Library offering additional tutoring services in one-onone and small group settings.
STUDENT EXPERIENCE
Beyond facilities, the 5 Star Plan placed a priority on improving the overall student experience. It aims to connect students with one another and their Flagler community through exciting on and off-campus opportunities. This meant creating events like a live circus performance, movies in the pool, off-campus field trips, exclusive concerts, sporting events and outdoor activities.
LACROSSE AND INTRAMURAL SPORTS FIELD
The launch of the men’s and women’s lacrosse teams also brought Flagler’s newest Athletics facility with a turf field that is also home to the College’s intramural sports like flag-football, soccer and others. The field is located parallel to Old Moultrie Road and sits beyond the center field wall of Drysdale Field. The first game at the Flagler Lacrosse Field was played on Feb. 9, 2022.
