Marcos.

Led by no less than VSU President Edgardo E. Tulin, a total of 50 officials of the Visayas State University across its five-campus system completed a weeklong benchmarking visit to two of the country's top and emerging universities.

For her works in poverty alleviation and human development, Dr. Anabella Bautista Tulin sets history by becoming the very first Viscan to be accorded with a Distinguished Alumni Award by the University of the Philippines Alumni Association (UPAA)—the official umbrella organization of all UP alumni and alumni chapters all over the world.
