The Central Luzon State University (CLSU) through the College of Home Science and Industry (CHSI) in partnership with the Philippine Association of Food Technologists - Zeta Chapter conducted the 3rd Food Technology Seminar that featured a lecture on the marketing of agro-food innovations with Prof. Dr. Hans De Steur, faculty at the Department of Agricultural Economics, Ghent University, Belgium, last Dec. 2, 2022, at the Institute for Climate Change Center Amphitheater, CLSU. Prof. De Steur's lecture focused on why and how agricultural marketing plays a vital role in achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). He highlighted that research on such topics provides an important basis for the decision-making of policymakers and stakeholders in agriculture. The one-hour lecture also delved into his research on genetically modified (GM) crops (e.g. iodine biofortified food) and how it was received as goods by consumers in Uganda. The discussion painted a picture of how marketing is not only about promotion or sales but about creating value for the customers. The event was graced by Dr. Renato G. Reyes, Vice President for Academic Affairs and Director of the International Affairs Office, and faculty members and students of CLSU and Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology.

The Central Luzon State University (CLSU) paid tribute to its unsung heroes during the “80th Anniversary and Commemoration of the Liberation of the Central Luzon Agricultural School (CLAS) and the memorial to the Known and Unknown Heroes of World War II” held on February 7, 2025 at the Vivencio Saulong Monument. Among the attendees were direct descendants of Vivencio Saulong, a student-leader from Mindoro and member of Squadron 222, who tragically sacrificed his life during the war. As part of the commemoration, the 2nd Civil-Military Operations Company and 7th Civil-Military Operations Battalion of the Armed Forces of the Philippines offered a 21-gun salute signifying the highest form of respect to the fallen heroes. University President Dr. Evaristo A. Abella urged faculty and students to emulate the patriotism and bravery exemplified by these unsung heroes. "To our students, let Vivencio Saulong serve as an inspiration, as he offered his life for our beloved university. Everything we have achieved today is a testament to the immense impact and contribution of our student-heroes like Saulong and his comrades. May this event serve as a bridge between the past and present, ensuring that the lessons of history remain alive in our hearts and in the generations to come" stated President Abella. A direct descendant of Saulong, Mr. Angel Saulong, former Mayor of Bansud, Oriental Mindoro, proudly recounted the narrative of his grandfather’s bravery and heroism. “My grandfather, Lolo Biben [Vivencio Saulong], was determined to study, which is why he left Oriental Mindoro with five or six others from Bongabong. At a young age, I remember a companion from his time here recounting my grandfather's bravery here in Nueva Ecija. During the revolution, while his companions chose to return home, he stayed here at university to become Corps Commander and fight for our country and for CLSU." Saulong recounted. This event served as a reminder to all CLSU members that bravery and patriotism are inherent qualities of every student within the institution.
