West Visayas State University (WVSU) recognized the 14 graduates of the University’s College of Information and Communications Technology (CICT) Bachelor of Library and Information Science (BLIS) program who successfully passed the September 2026 Librarians Computer-Based Licensure Examination during the weekly flag-raising ceremony on Sept. 14.

Among the new licensed librarians is Class of 2026 valedictorian Louise Angelika P. Pahilanga, who placed second nationwide with a rating of 92.40%.

The achievement was highlighted during the ceremony hosted by the WVSU College of Medicine under Dean Dr. Celina Gellada, as the University community welcomed and congratulated the new professionals for their achievement.

Meanwhile, students, faculty, and staff were encouraged to avail themselves of government services being offered at the Annex 3 of the Roxas Hall, College of Medicine.

The services include PhilHealth membership registration, registration for the PhilHealth Yaman ng Kalusugan (YAKAP) Program, and National ID registration. Members of the University community were encouraged to take advantage of these services, particularly those who may still need to complete their registration.

The service initiative forms part of “Handog ng Pangulo: Serbisyong Sapat para sa Lahat,” a nationwide government initiative that brings government agencies together to make frontline services and assistance more accessible to communities.

Through the weekly flag-raising ceremony, WVSU continues to provide a venue for recognizing the achievements of its community while sharing information and connecting students, faculty, and staff with services and opportunities relevant to their needs.
