Notes

In 1970 the Student Union Building, a four storey structure in the centre of the Waterloo Lutheran University campus, was constructed. Only the top two floors of the building were completed, leaving the lower floors as a parking lot. In 1979 the second phase of construction enclosed the bottom two floors, completing the building. The Student Union Building was expanded in 1995. In 1997 it was renamed the Fred Nichols Campus Centre, in honour of Fred Nichols, dean of students from 1963 to 1997.

Wilfrid Laurier University is located in Waterloo, Ontario. It began in 1911 as the Evangelical Lutheran Seminary of Canada. In 1924 Waterloo College was established, providing courses in post-secondary education. In 1960 Waterloo College became Waterloo Lutheran University, and in 1973 changed its name to Wilfrid Laurier University.
