OFFICE OF THE EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT
Intramuros, Manila
My special greetings to all the graduates of Batch
2014!
This year’s theme Anchoring on Excellence: Producing
Future Agents of Progress resonates well in today’s Philippine
setting when rebuilding from the wrath of natural calamities
and rising from the economic slump are the order of the day.
The coming months, even years, will mark a
consequential transition from school work to a whole
new world of professional work. Out there are potential
leads if you venture correctly.
Imminent challenges may derail the attainment
of your goals. Consider possible setbacks and looming
difficulties that you have to grapple with on your way to
success.
The University has consistently lived up to its
avowed goal of nurturing future professionals with a kind
of decisiveness to excel whenever and wherever life may
lead you. Your mentors and school officials have imbued
in you not just the skills and knowledge, but more so, the
combined conviction to be catalysts of change that should
redound to progress and prosperity not just for one’s self
but for the nation, as well.
Let me therefore remind you to go on your way
to your desired destination but with a high sense of
responsibility to be competitive yet mindful of your roles
as agents of transformation.
VIRGINIA N. SANTOS, Ed.D.
