The Morris Family Health and Fitness Complex will serve as a beacon of wellness, education, and hope for this region."

The Morris Family Health and Fitness Complex will feature a state-of-the-art fitness center open to the public, encouraging healthy living for the residents of Glenville and surrounding areas and innovative academic spaces for health science instruction, offering GSU students valuable resources and immersive, hands-on learning opportunities.
