Over a decade of providing service to humanity, the Central Luzon State University (CLSU) successfully held its weeklong celebration of the 116th founding anniversary on April 11-14, 2023. With the theme "Celebrating a borderless, transformative, and visionary leadership in higher education”, various activities were staged and attended by students, faculty and staff, and other stakeholders. The festivities kicked off with the parade followed by the opening program at the CLSU Auditorium. Meanwhile, some of the student-initiated activities including the opening of the CLSU Bazaar to further boost the entrepreneurship skills of the students also started on the first day. One of the highlights of the event is the State of the University Address (SUA) delivered by University President Edgar A. Orden which contained the accomplishments and initiatives of the university towards becoming a World Class National Research University for Science and Technology in Agriculture and allied fields. Furthermore, on the evening of the second day, the most-awaited fireworks display brightened the skies of the CLSU Oval wherein over a thousand students, faculty, and staff gathered to watch and be mesmerized by the grand fireworks display which lasted for almost 5 minutes. On the third day, activities such as the Professor of the Day took place for each college to inspire the students in the different career paths they wanted to pursue. Meanwhile, on the last day of celebration, there was the inauguration of the Visionary Leadership Gate and Sapang Asta, and the Soft Launching of American Superintendent Park which were graced by the Hon. Micaela "Mikki" Violago, former representative of the 2nd District of Nueva Ecija, and Mr. John Groch, Public Affairs Officer at the U.S. Embassy and his staff. The CLSU Administration also recognized the employees who have rendered years of dedicated service to the university and honored the outstanding employees for their excellent service during the PRAISE Awards and Recognition Night. Indeed, the success of the different major and pocket events brought out again the Pusong CLSUan to every student, faculty, and staff.

Students from the College of Business and Accountancy (CBA) clinched 3rd Runner-Up in the ASEAN Future Sustainable Leaders Competition (AFSLC) with their project “Pamanang Tumana: A Farmer’s Legacy.” The national-level contest, held on October 4, 2025, brought together accounting students from across the Philippines to present innovative, multidisciplinary solutions to challenges aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs). Anchored on the theme “Empowering ASEAN Youth for Sustainable Development Goals,” the team’s video highlighted the growing disinterest of youth in agriculture — an issue that threatens the nation’s future food security. As a solution, they featured the CLSU’s Precision and Digital Agriculture Center (PreDiCt), aiming to shift young people’s preconceived negative views about farming through technology and innovation. Competing against 48 official entries and a total of 192 student participants, the team was composed of accounting students namely Joseph Scott I. Bundoc, Shaina Glyssa Castillo, Patrick Enoza, and Tristan Jay P. Nening, under the mentorship of Assoc. Prof. Winnie DC. Villanueva, Asst. Prof. Harold Vincent DJ. Vidaira, and Ms. Via Shane R. Santiago. In addition to securing a podium finish, the team also garnered two special awards that highlighted both their creativity and online presence: Best Video Entry, which recognized the quality and impact of their multimedia presentation, and 3rd Place in Facebook Engagement, awarded for their ability to effectively reach and engage a wide audience. Another team from CLSU also competed in the event with their video project titled “SINEKVAT,” which focused on preserving and sustaining the culture of the Bugkalot indigenous community in Nueva Vizcaya. Their work explored how modern technology can help revive and integrate traditional heritage into the present. This team successfully placed in the Top 18 of the competition. The AFSLC was organized by the Philippine Institute of Certified Public Accountants (PICPA) Committee on Faculty Development and Research, in partnership with KPMG Philippines and RG Manabat & Co., CPAs, to cultivate socially responsible and innovative young leaders in the accounting field across the ASEAN region.
