University of Pangasinan Harvest Festival ‘08
SUMMER is indeed festival time in Pangasinan and the entire sea-rimmed Ilokoslovakia.
As thousands or close to a million Northerners, riveted their eyes on Pangasinan’s Pistay Dayat and Dagupan City’s Bangus festival, leaders of the academe, parents, professionals and the general public who have been stakeholders— directly or indirectly — in the historic growth of the leader of education in the north, the University of Pangasinan, 83, invite the public to take another look at this “university for all seasons” as it beckons the young to avail themselves of its innovative and progressive programs that are needed by the times.
Under Chairman Cesar T. Duque, an accomplished business leader in Southeast Asia, who has an excellent record in his star-studded studentship at the Ateneo in the tumultuous years before the 70’s, and the scholarly and foreign university schooled President Catalino P. Rivera Jr., the University takes pride in its track record that has recently received an accolade as the “most trusted educational institution in Region I.”
Not wont to sit on its laurels, the university through the community-winning leadership of its president has sustained its program of transforming individuals and communities such as its project, CESAR, better known as “The Transformative University Extension Program.”
Cesar stands for “Catalyst for Change, Empowerment, Strategy, Accountability and Relevance.”
Under Cesar, UPang has taken concrete and dynamic steps to literally live and learn with the people, addressing community needs and issues in a productive and timely way..
The university also has “The Alternative Learning Stream” program that gives a college or master’s degree to full time workers who are hindered by time and distance, citing the shining examples of great Filipinos the likes of the late Nick Joaquin, Blas F. Ople and Adrian Cristobal and others who have not finished a college degree due to certain constraints.
