VATICAN OKs XAVIER U CAMPUS OF THE FUTURE PROJECT

/ 24 August 2021

THE VATICAN has approved the “Campus of the Future” project of Xavier University – Ateneo de Cagayan.

“The Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life, having attentively examined the documents submitted, grants the request in conformity with the petition,” the Letter of Approval from the Vatican read.

The project aims to expand the school’s post-pandemic learning spaces and opportunities.

The Father Provincial of the Jesuits endorsed the plan to the Superior General of the Jesuits in Rome, who in turn endorsed it to the Vatican for its approval.

XU President Fr. Mars P. Tan SJ said that this development means good news for those who truly value education and formation of young people.

“I am excited and happy because this will fulfill Xavier Ateneo’s dream to give the best Jesuit education possible in the region and in Mindanao,” he said.

“First-class education needs first-class building and campus design,” Tan added.

The campus to be built features state-of-the-art school buildings and facilities.
