Locations

The University of La Salle has three campuses located in the city of Bogotá and one more in Yopal (Casanare) with an approximate area of {{convert|90,000|m2}}.

One campus is located in the cultural center of the city La Candelaria. On this campus are the programs of Architecture and Urbanism, Management and Engineering. It has a theater that functions as an auditorium.

There is a second campus located in the Chapinero district, that also has a theater used by several institutions including the district and the La Salle schools. The third campus is located in the North of the city, where it has a more spacious area and accommodates the agricultural sciences.

Chapels

As a sign of the Catholic affiliation of the university, each campus has a chapel, with free public access. Every chapel is coordinated by the pastor of each campus.

Chapel of La Santa Cruz (La Candelaria)

The Chapel of La Santa Cruz is located in the La Candelaria campus. It was built in 1933, years before the foundation of the university as it is known today. The chapel was initially planned to serve as a private chapel for the Lasallian Brothers' Institute and its students, but due to the destruction caused to the Institute's original building on the night of 9 April 1948 in the Bogotazo revolt, the chapel was eventually repaired to become part of the new University established in the first semester of 1965. Currently, the chapel is a living example of the long history of the Lasallian brothers in Colombia.

One of the main characteristics of this chapel that shows its history, is an organ which is used on special occasions. The organ is one of three such organs existing in the city.

Chapel of the Star (Chapinero)

The Chapel of the Star is one of the most significant buildings on the Chapinero campus, because of its distinctive arched shape. The chapel was built as part of the project of the campus. Its name comes from one of the universal symbols of the Lasallian brothers, The Mary's star.

Lyrics (Spanish)

Chorus

En la Atenas señera, La Salle

alza el vuelo cual águila azul

¡juventudes! A vuestra alma mater

ensalzad al compás del laúd

I

Con el sabio arzobispo Bernardo

se regó la simiente de luz,

que se filtra en el mar y en el nardo

y florece a los pies de la cruz

II

En la ciencia y la técnica el claustro

forma egregias legiones de honor

que conquistan sin miedos al austro

el cenit coruscante del sol.

III

¡Lasallistas! la América Hispana

ya no sueña en doctrina falaz;

del amor escuchad la campana;

nos congrega en abrazo de Paz.

IV

Si el Señor e La Salle volviera

esta tierra ardería en caridad

y en el "Signum Fidei" encendiera

el blasón de la Universidad.

Letra del Himno: Maestro Camilo Orbes Moreno

Música: Heriberto Morán Vivas

Arreglos: Francisco Javier Cuevas Romero
