Kick off your opening weekend as a La Salle Explorer at Explorientation, from Thursday, Aug. 25 through Sunday, Aug. 28. Explorientation, or Explo for short, helps you settle into your new life as an Explorer with campus-wide activities, such as Club Quad, Explorer soccer games, and performances at Dan Rodden Theatre, just to name a few.
