“As you share with the world the qualities instilled in us by this prominent institution, may you never fail to do your part, to choose Him (God) every day…I want to thank BukSU for being the home and cradle of thousands of Bukidnon children and for becoming the keeper of our college journey.”

The commencement exercise was held in the Gymnasium of Bukidnon State University’s main campus in Malaybalay City, Bukidnon, Philippines.

Today is the last of a four-day series of baccalaureate and graduate programs’ graduation rites of the university’s seven colleges. This afternoon, it is the turn of the College of Nursing. As of June 2022, there are about 1,409 candidates for graduation in BukSU.

Only fully vaccinated candidates for graduation and two of their family members were allowed to participate in the first in-person graduation rites in BukSU after the March 2020 lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Students and parents who cannot present proof of full vaccination may show a negative RT-PCR (Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction) test result upon entry. Theme: Future-Proofing Education through Innovative and Ethical Leadership
