Thank you to everyone who joined us at this event!
November 20, 2025

Thank you to everyone who joined us this afternoon to celebrate the grand opening of the newly renovated Louis E. Saavedra Administration Building. It was wonderful to hear from the broad team who brought this project to completion and then to tour the beautiful design.

LSA carries considerable historical significance because it was the college's first classroom building when Albuquerque Technical Vocational Institute (TVI) opened in 1965. Today, LSA is home to the President’s Office, Vice President offices, and other support services and the building will continue to be an anchor for CNM and the community we serve.

Enjoy the full photo gallery below!
