<span style="font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;">As an urban university, La Salle invites students to enhance their academic experience by immersing themselves in the rich resources of Philadelphia and the region. All members of our community are called to maintain a heightened sensitivity to those marginalized within society as they practice civic engagement, provide leadership with a global perspective, and contribute to the common good</span>
== St. John Baptist de De La Salle&nbsp; =<br/> =
<span style="font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;">De La Salle is our patron saint and &nbsp;is the founder of a congregation of laymen whose sole ministry is education. &nbsp;He was proclaimed a saint in the Catholic Church in 1900 and named the patron of teachers in 1950. &nbsp;He was raised in Reims, France, a son of a privileged family who gave up his wealth and status to live with the poor. &nbsp;During his life, he established a network of gratuitous schools for poor boys. &nbsp;His writings have influenced educational practice, school management, and teacher preparation for more than 300 years.</span>
