In this special UBC Homecoming episode of From Here Forward, hosts Carol and Jeevan return to the Vancouver campus to visit some of their favourite spots and reflect on how the campus has evolved since they graduated. Along the way, they stop by the Robert H. Lee Alumni Centre, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary with the “Building Magic” party at Homecoming on September 20. They also talk with Matthew Roddis and Joanne Proft (MA[Planning]'97, MLArch'00) from UBC Campus & Community Planning to explore the transformation of campus life and the bold ideas shaping its future through Campus Vision 2050.
