⭐ Kogan Plaza
Situated beside Gelman Library and behind Lisner Auditorium, the benches next to the tree-lined walkways are sought-after spots to catch up with a friend or relax between classes. During the warmer months, some professors turn Kogan Plaza into an outdoor classroom for their students.
🍎 Apple Day
How about them apples? Apple day is an annual tradition that takes place in Kogan Plaza each fall. Apple Day celebrates the fall harvest with fun activities and a giveaway of locally grown apples!
