A critical component to strengthening the “Lakers” student experience and encouraging community engagement is improving the physical campus with a new Student Centre. Funding for updated and welcoming student facilities will promote a myriad of activities within unique spaces. It will create new opportunities for spirited social activities for all students and will be an inclusive environment where new interests are explored, and budding leaders hone their skills. It will encourage collaborative connections and foster success –both inside and outside of the classroom.
