A Nueva Ecija legislator lauded as a dream come true the enactment of laws to establish two regular campuses of a state university within the province’s first congressional district.
First District Representative Estrellita Suansing said the creation of regular school campuses of Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology (NEUST) in Sto. Domingo and the remote municipality of Nampicuan can now be realized after President Rodrigo Duterte signed the laws for this purpose.
These are Republic Acts (RAs) 117592 and 117593 for NEUST-Sto. Domingo campus and NEUST-Nampicuan campus, respectively.
“Ang parehong NEUST campuses sa nasabing mga bayan ay inaasahan na mag-aalok ng iba’t ibang mga kurso na abot sa kanilang kakayahan.”
“Ang parehong NEUST campuses sa nasabing mga bayan ay inaasahan na mag-aalok ng iba’t ibang mga kurso, kabilang ang short-term, technical-vocational, undergraduate, at graduate courses na abot sa kanilang kakayahan,” Suansing said.
The two campuses, the legislator added, are the fulfillment of their dream to make quality education accessible to students in the district.
“Hangad po natin na mas marami pang mga estudyante ang mahikayat na makapagtapos ng kanilang pag-aaral.”
