Bacolod City, NEGROS OCCIDENTAL—The Office of Planning and Quality Assurance (PQA) holds the Midterm Academic Planning Assessment 2018 at the President’s Hall, November 16-17, 2018.

Besana, OAR, University President and Dr. Elmer Haro gave the rationale of the planning activity.

Fr. President, in his Opening remarks, challenged those present to take care of the students. He reminded all that our work in the educational apostolate is the work of God and we are all God’s collaborators in forming the hearts and the minds of the young people. Fr. Besana also reiterated that “we are one with the mission of Christ and the Church in spreading the word of God and to holistically and integrally develop the human person.” He challenged the community to really make a difference in the areas of instruction, research and community involvement. He strongly reminded the academic deans of these and that we have to be fair in dealing with the students. Listen to what they are saying. Lastly, he challenged everyone that we have to smell like sheep for the Shepherd to recognize us and to smell like fish in order to be identified by the fisherman.
