𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐊 | A consultative meeting with Dr. Prose Ivy G. Yepes, VSU President, was held on May 6, 2026, at the Conference Room, bringing together students, faculty, and administrators to discuss key updates and campus concerns.

The event highlighted institutional achievements, including student and staff recognition, alongside announcements of new initiatives, such as academic support and student benefits. An oath-taking ceremony for newly promoted personnel also took place.

During the open forum, students were given the opportunity to raise concerns, including the eligibility of transferee students for Latin honors, the lack of functional classrooms to accommodate all students, and the availability of a student portal for the easy and prompt viewing of grades.

Dr. Yepes expressed optimism for the campus’s future, envisioning “𝘝𝘚𝘜 𝘈𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘢𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘮𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘤𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘶𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘷𝘢𝘭𝘶𝘦-𝘭𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘯 𝘧𝘢𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘵𝘺, 𝘢𝘥𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘧𝘧, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴."
