Florida Polytechnic University has announced a $2 million gift from Trustee Gary Wendt to establish new leadership initiatives for students.
Wendt, a businessman, joined the Florida Poly Board of Trustees back in 2017. Florida Poly is set to name a future engineering building on campus after Wendt in recognition of his contribution.
The building is expected to house spaces for engineering research and development, as well as new leadership programs. “This generous contribution will carry on his legacy of tenacity and leadership for our University for many years to come, and we are very grateful,” said Randy Avent, Florida Poly’s president.
