Alumni of CAPSU Burias inaugurated the Balay Alumni, its latest completed project located at the campus thru a ceremonial ribbon-cutting on March 20 led by Engr. Nerio Harion, Alumni Federation President, Dr. Salvacion Legaspi, University Vice President for External Affairs and Linkages, at the same time Officer of CAPSU Burias Alumni Association, Prof. Davidica L. Avelino, Alumni and Community Affairs Director, and Dr. Rodyard B. Madiclum, Campus Administrator.

The reconstructed building serves as an alumni lounge, and offers spaces to accommodate gatherings, networking events, and seminars. It consists of three rooms, two comfort rooms, and a living room.

"Our alumni will have a place to stay... Whoever wants to use it can do so anytime... Of course, it's also a blessing because this is where I graduated from, and I’m proud of it,"  Engr. Nerio Harion shared.

The alumni office acknowledges the generosity of several individuals, alumni batches and alumni organizations who contributed for the completion of the project, and  shared that one of the major sponsors of the reconstruction of the building was Engr. Nerio V. Harion.

"We would like to extend our thanks to Sir Nerio... for (his) generosity and for providing almost everything in this building," Dr. Legaspi shared.

Moreover,  Balay Alumni stands to promote engagement and collaboration, encouraging alumni to remain active participants in the University’s mission, and serves a hallmark of loyalty and gratitude to their alma mater.

"The support of our alumni is a testament to their lasting loyalty and gratitude to our alma mater. Every donation, no matter the size, is crucial in strengthening our community and shaping a brighter future for generations to come. Thank you for your generosity and steadfast commitment," Prof. Avelino expressed.
