“Thank you for giving yourself, thank you for giving your all to the University of Antique. UA is forever grateful to you.” – Dr. Pablo S. Crespo Jr., University President.

University of Antique employees together with their families gathered at Paghi-UsA Hall for PanUdlAk 2024, the Commemoration of the 71st Founding Anniversary of UA, today, January 11, 2025.

Messages of UA’s impact to students, employees, and families with members who are working at the university were also shared by Mrs. Maezel Feranil Iturralde, Dr. Debbie Jean Sabug-Riego, and Mrs. Ana Magdalene Asis Vegafria.

Dr. Crespo on his message also acknowledged the value of the family that serves as a foundation of the university. He also apologized for the times when employees needed to give up their time just to fulfill their responsibilities at the academe.

“Ang pamilya bahul gid ang contribution sa University of Antique at the same time ang UA bahul man ang contribution sa aton pamilya,” Dr. Crespo further stated.

The whole community also offered a prayer for one of its pillars, UA’s former president, Dr. Godofredo Gallega who passed away a day before UA’s anniversary.
