THE FORMER president of the Southern Leyte State University received an award for her contributions for the past eight years.

Dr. Prose Ivy Yepes was one of the recipients of the Administrators Honorific Awards during the Regional Eight Administrations League Summit held on Monday in Tacloban.

The AHA is given to administrators who contributed greatly to society.

SLSU said that Yepes raised the status of the university in the international arena.

“It is a well-deserved recognition for Dr. Yepes after all the achievements she accomplished not just for herself but also for the university as the former University President and other Aadministrative positions she held even before she became the steward of the university,” SLSU Officer-in-Charge Dr. Francis Ann Sy said.
