This gift reflects Iannone’s deep appreciation for the College’s historic legacy and will include the naming of two iconic spaces on campus: the fireplace in the Bird Cage and his former dorm room, located in Ponce Hall’s West Wing.
“This gift from David reflects the deep connection so many students feel to their time spent in the historic spaces of Ponce Hall,” said Dr. Andrea Adams-Manning, Dean of Students at Flagler. “His generosity helps ensure that these iconic landmarks continue to inspire and create meaningful memories for future generations of students.”
As a dedicated donor since 1992, David Iannone has been a steadfast supporter of the College’s mission and its efforts to honor its rich history. His contribution will help sustain the restoration and maintenance of these treasured spaces, ensuring they remain an integral part of the Flagler experience.
“Flagler College holds a special place in my heart, not only for the education I received, but also for the memories made in its historic spaces,” Iannone said. “Ponce Hall was central to my college experience, and I’m honored to support its preservation for future students."
