THE SAINT Louis University in Baguio postponed the holding of physical graduation rites because of the quarantine restrictions.

“SLU announces the cancellation of the in-person Commencement Exercises on June 24-25, 2021. This is in compliance with the guidelines and directives of the latest IATF Omnibus Guidelines on the Implementation of Community Quarantine in the Philippines,” the university said.
