The Future Begins Here is not your regular history book. Though it is published to celebrate an important milestone in the 100 year story of De La Salle University (DLSU), it was purposely conceptualized not to be a traditional history book, but a publication that would best express the spirit of the University -- that of a young, dynamic, bold, and unique educational institution that keeps pace with the changing ties while being true to the original ideals of its Founder, St John Baptist de La Salle. In The Future Begins Here, the heartwarming story of DLSU is told in many ways--through thematic approach which features the different strengths that have made the University what it is today; through the story of the Christian Brothers who have selflessly given of themselves in the name of education, through the short biographical slips of some of the school's most illustrious alumni in business, public service, the arts and culture, science and technology, environmental protection and other fields; and through a distinct look that seamlessly marries the past to the present to the future. The Future Begins Here is the story DLSU's 100-year journey starting with the momentous arrival of the Christian Brothers in 1911, and moving on to its continuing commitment to be the best university for young men and women in search of a modern Christian education.
