U.P. President Harps on Compassionate Governance

UP President Danilo Concepcion emphasized the value of compassion as the key to solidarity and camaraderie in fostering unity within the university. This compassion would serve as the key to understanding the rights and freedom of students, the dignity and recognition of its esteemed professors, the building of three other branches of the Philippine General Hospital, the difficulty of public high school students in hurdling the UPCAT as well as encouraging the return service from among the university’s graduates.

Through his governance, UP’s ranking has soared on the world stage as it is now moving forward to be at par with the best universities in the world. While the university boasts of its marquee students, the dire need for facilities takes precedence above anything else as these will ably complement the learning in excellence that is genuinely UP.

Compassion, indeed, finds significance in making the tradition of honor and excellence in UP, an enhanced culture of an enduring legacy, making it truly a national university.
