Champlain Regional College, St. Lawrence Campus was founded as a private boys' school in Sainte-Foy in 1958 by Cardinal Maurice Roy.
The college traces its origins to the merger of several institutions which became public ones in 1967, when the Quebec system of CEGEPs was created.
A. programs were phased out, and St. Lawrence, now a CEGEP, was first affiliated with Cégep de Sainte-Foy and then, with Vanier College of Montreal.
The SLC Lions Athletics program exists since the early 1970s, where it became a member the FASCQ (Fédération des associations sportives collégiales du Québec).
Our ten (10) varsity teams represent St. Lawrence at the regional and provincial levels as members of the Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec (RSEQ), and also at the national level as a member of the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA).
