Sayco, College of Engineering Dean and OIC VP for Academic Affairs delivered the welcome remarks in which he expressed his gratitude to the accreditors and the local task force for their efforts in ensuring that the programs will effectively achieve their objective of providing quality education to students. Meanwhile, Dr. Evaristo A. Abella, VP for Administration and OIC of the Office of the University President, emphasized that CLSU's mandate is to provide students with the quality education in their chosen discipline, and the accreditation process can help in identifying the strength and weaknesses for each program. "An external examiner is one who objectively evaluates and identifies our strengths and weaknesses, and as we dwell on our strengths, we address our weaknesses" said Dr. Abella. Leading the AACCUP evaluators is Dr. Boyet L. Batang from Isabela State University, who introduced the accrediting task force and discussed the essence of accreditation and documents which needs to be scrutinized. The AACCUP evaluation aims to develop a culture of quality in the different SUCs to maintain excellent features and processes of the curricular programs being offered. Other activities during the accreditation are the presentation of documents for the areas to be visited, interview with students and faculty, and a virtual tour of the facilities.

CLSU Launches ‘Sidlan’ Community Pantry to Support Students

Embodying the Filipino spirit of bayanihan, the Laban sa Ipinagbabawal na Gamot, Tulay na Agapay sa Sielesyuans at Sambayanan (LIGTAS-CLSU), a non-college-based student organization, in partnership with the Office of Student Affairs (OSA) headed by Dean Irene Bustos, officially launched its community pantry today, August 26 at the OSA tambayan. Dubbed “Sidlan: Ang Pantry ng Sielesyuans,” the event was first conceptualized two years ago through the collective contributions and support of the university community. Guided by the principle “Kumuha ayon sa pangangailangan, magbigay ayon sa kakayahan,” the pantry will operate daily from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM for all CLSU students. During the opening ceremony, LIGTAS-CLSU President Jovan Clay Evangelista emphasized the project's community-driven mission. "Ito ang Sidlan, ang pantry ng Sielesyuan, isang proyekto mula sa komunidad, para sa komunidad,” Mr. Evangelista said. University President Dr. Evaristo A. Abella commended the organizers for initiating a program aimed at directly assisting fellow students. "Alam naman natin na hindi pantay-pantay ang kakayahan ng bawat estudyante dito sa ating campus, kaya from time to time ay maglalagay din tayo dito upang matulungan ang ibang estudyante,” Pres. Abella stated, assuring continued institutional and personal support for the project. To embody the spirit of the community pantry, Dr. Abella brought with him essential groceries and sacks of rice to share with the community. The organization continues to welcome donations of food and essential goods from the CLSU Community and the public, while encouraging all Sielesyuans, especially those facing financial hardship, to take what they need from the pantry. #SievingForExcellence
