CAPILANO UNIVERSITY'S MISSION STATEMENT
AT CAPILANO UNIVERSITY OUR MISSION IS TO ENABLE STUDENT SUCCESS IN
CURRENT AND CONTINUING STUDIES, IN A CHOSEN CAREER, IN THE PURSUIT
OF KNOWLEDGE, AND IN CONTRIBUTING EFFECTIVELY AS RESPONSIBLE
CITIZENS IN A RAPIDLY CHANGING AND DIVERSE GLOBAL COMMUNITY.

T H E

CAPILANO

S T O R Y In the early 1960s, a dedicated group of North Shore

residents came together to create a place of learning for all people from all communities
and from all nations.
Their vision was realized on September 10,1968 when Capilano College welcomed 784
students to its first classes held in a small building on the grounds of West Vancouver
Senior Secondary School.
In 1973, the College moved to its current location - a 13-hectare campus on Purcell Way in
North Vancouver. That same year, it began offering classes in Squamish and expanded in
1977 to provide classes in Sechelt. Permanent facilities were constructed in Sechelt in 1987
to serve the residents of the Sunshine Coast, and in Squamish in 1995 to serve residents
throughout the Howe Sound Corridor.
Students in Capilano's early days were taught by faculty whose values were reflected in
their passion for teaching. Over the years, this commitment has remained undiminished.
In recognition of Capilano's reputation for excellence and educational innovation, and
in response to the growing needs of lifelong learners, British Columbia's Premier Gordon
Campbell redesignated Capilano College as Capilano University on April 25, 2008.

The mace depicts the authority vested in the University to grant degrees, and also
incorporates the history and tradition that surrounds both the territory of the location of
our three regional campuses and the vision of Capilano University.
Its design portrays the unique territorial qualities of our region, which extends from Deep
Cove to Mt. Currie to Earl's Cove on the Sunshine Coast. These qualities include reference to
the animal world, to the landscape, to the directional symbolism, and to the human element.
It has been carved from yew, which is a natural wood found in our region.
Responsibilities for bearing the mace originated in the office of the Bedellus or Beadle

CHANCELLCTR

The Chancellor and Vice Chancellor robes are based on traditional academic ceremonial
gowns. Capilano University's Chancellor's gown is black brocade with a woven dogwood
flower motif, trimmed in gold brocade and edged with the Capilano royal blue silk trim.
The dogwood is British Columbia's official flower. The four gold bands on both the upper
and lower gothic sleeve each represent Capilano's 40 years as an educational institution.
The Vice Chancellor's robes are in the same black brocade with dogwood motif, trimmed
in silver brocade and edged with royal blue silk.
