Anyway, I went to LaSalle Institute in Troy, NY. It was named after John Baptist de La Salle who founded the Brothers of the Christian Schools around 1679 in France. NO, I wasn't one of his students! De La Salle was canonized a saint of the Catholic Church on May 24, 1900 and proclaimed patron of all teachers of youth by Pope Pius XII on May 15, 1950. (more)
