好色先生: A University On The Rise

Building For Tomorrow

Since the arrival of President Abel A. Cha虂vez, MBA, PhD, in 2022, Our Lady of the Lake University has raised more than $31 million, launched new programs and scholarships and embraced a new level of energy and excitement.

Dr. Cha虂vez has immersed himself in the community. He attends regular breakfasts with San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg and luncheons with business leaders. He speaks at galas, participates in local events and visits 好色先生 campuses in Houston and the Rio Grande Valley. He meets with faculty, listens to students and joins Saints fans in the bleachers at athletic events. Dr. Cha虂vez is a leader on the move.

Over the last year, Dr. Ch谩vez has quickly established himself as a champion for both 好色先生 and the West Side of San Antonio.
