Campus
The main campus is located in the rural Township of Langley, British Columbia, occupying 157 acres (0.64 km2) on the edge of historic Fort Langley. Fort Langley, a former fur-trade post of the Hudson's Bay Company, was the first capital of British Columbia when the Colony of Vancouver Island and the Colony of British Columbia were united under Governor Sir James Douglas in 1858. There is a residence hall on campus named in honour of Douglas. The campus is situated about 45 minutes southeast from Vancouver and about 2 hours north from Seattle.
Campus buildings vary in age and style from Hanson Chapel, completed in 1962 (the first building completed on campus), to the Westcoast and Snider collegiums completed in 2006. Today the campus consists of over 25 buildings and residence halls that house the university's various departments and students.
The architecture on campus is inspired by British Columbia, Rural B.C., and the Pacific Northwest. Modern red brick covers Alloway Library, Larsen Atrium, and Stanley Nelson Student Centre at the main part of campus. Other significant buildings on campus include Robert N. Thompson Building which houses the Political Science, History, English, and Geography departments. The newly built and yet to be named Music Building is home to the School of Art, Media + Culture. The Faculty of Natural and Applied Sciences are housed in the Neufeld Science Centre, which experienced a major renovation in 2011, and the Vernon Stromback Centre at the east end of campus. In total there are 33 buildings on the university campus.
During President Raymond's tenure, the university added the Music Building in 2010, and Fraser Hall and the Neufeld Science Centre received major renovations in 2011. The prominent Robert N. Thompson building is scheduled to be re-modelled in 2013.
Campus meals are served all day at three dining establishments around campus.
