The House Committee on Higher and Technical Education chaired by Rep. Ann Hofer (2nd District, Zamboanga Sibugay) this week approved House Bill 7114 which seeks to establish a Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP) branch in Sta. Rosa City, Laguna to cater to students from the provinces of Region IV-A or CALABARZON Region.
Principally authored by Rep. Arlene Arcillas (1st District, Laguna), the satellite university shall offer graduate, undergraduate and short-term technical-vocational courses within its area of specialization and capabilities.
It shall be headed by a Branch Administrator who shall render full-time service and whose appointment or designation shall be made by the Board of Regents (BOR).
PUP President Dr. Emmanuel de Guzman interposed no objection to the bill, but stressed that the requirements of the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) should all be met, particularly those pertaining to standards and quality of education.
Arcillas sought the inclusion of PUP Sta Rosa's operating budget in the national budget.
With Hofer during the hearing were Reps. Ben Evardone, Renato Unico, Joey Salceda, Romeo Acop, Antonio Tinio, France Castro, Ramon Rocamora and Sarah Elago. / Eddie Galvez
