LACC Campus Gets a Makeover

On November 4, light pole banners went up around campus featuring the faces of distinguished alumni and students.  The banners also revealed LACC’s redesigned logo and new slogan, “The City’s College.”

The banners were a result of the hard work of LACC Foundation Development Director Leigh Stenberg and Executive Director Robert Schwartz, who contacted notable alumni to invite them to participate in the banner marketing campaign.  Forty two distinguished alumni agreed to participate including actors Mark Hamill and Morgan Freeman, composer John Williams, and architect Frank Gehry.  Alex Swart and Alan Daniels, members of LACC Foundation Board of Directors, also had a major role in developing the new logo and slogan and creating the design for the banners.

The banners gave the campus a whole new look and allowed students the chance to see themselves pictured alongside alumni who have had incredible careers.  We hope the banners will bring campus pride to current students, faculty, and staff for many years to come, inspire students to do incredible things, and to continue their education despite any adversity they may face.
