TAYABAS CITY, Quezon – A second academic building will soon rise in this city’s Southern Luzon State University (SLSU)-Tayabas campus following the cornerstone laying ceremony under the state university’s infrastructure project “SLSU of the 21st Century-Tayabas Phase 1.”

SLSU president Dr. Milo O. Placino and Tayabas City Mayor Ernida Reynoso led the capsule laying with university and city officials last April 5.

In an interview on Tuesday, Reynoso assured that the SLSU campus here would open by September, nixing critics that the state university’s extension campus opening would not push through.

Glenn Arvy Eclavea, head project coordinator of the Special Assistance Office of the City Mayor-SLSU Tayabas Affairs, also announced that the initial courses set to open by September are three Bachelor of Science degrees in Information Technology, Agriculture and Hotel and Restaurant Management.

Eclavea added that the establishment of the Information Technology Hub and International Affairs Center were included in the plans and programs under the SLSU extension campus project . (Gideon Belen/PNA)
