The 2025 Recap: A Transformative Year at LaSalle College Vancouver
This is the time of year when we pause to look back. In that quiet week after final projects are submitted, fashion collections have been shown, the last design critiques have been held, and the final audio mixes are mastered.
It’s the perfect moment to reflect not just on what we created this year, but on how far we’ve come.
If 2025 could be described in one word, it would be change.
This was the year LaSalle College Vancouver moved into its new, purpose-built campus—a transformative step for our entire community. It was also the year that national and international recognition reaffirmed the impact of our programs, our faculty, and the work our students are putting into the world.
As we turn the page, we reflect on the moments that defined this chapter of our story.
