THE University of Southern Philippines community has welcomed new university president in Dr. Bonifacio Gabales Jr. who assumed his post recently.

Gabales vowed to continually and fully implement the approved and installed Strategic Plan laid down by the previous leadership of the University.

“We are very much thankful to our previous leaders for laying down the foundation for everyone to follow, implement, and maybe innovating some strategies to successfully implement those plans, programs, and targets in our deliverables in the next three or four years,” he said in a post

Gabales also urged the USP community to help him to maintain the quality education offered to the students.

“With your participation and full support, I know we can do this. Because honestly, I cannot do this alone. That’s why we need to do our share for the University. Our students are our primary stakeholders, our customers, and we need you to tell us where we can improve on any areas or processes or when our programs need improvement,” the new university president said.

Gabales is set to make rounds to all USP campuses in the next few weeks to address the constituency of the university.
