The Civil Engineering Department warmly celebrates an educator who has left a meaningful mark on the Civilyans he continues to teach and guide.

With patience, dedication, and a genuine commitment to his students, Engr. Barrientos goes beyond the classroom, always finding ways to guide future engineers through the challenges that come with their journey toward the profession.

The Department is grateful for the knowledge, guidance, and presence he continues to share with the Civil Engineering community.

Happy Birthday, Engr. Barrientos! May the years ahead bring more opportunities for teaching, learning, inspiring future engineers, and creating moments worth remembering. ๐Ÿ—๏ธ

A beginning is often defined by what comes after it. For the Civil Engineering Organization, the first General Assembly became one of those beginnings, bringing Civilyans together as the organization took its first steps.

With their commitment comes the responsibility to serve, work together, and help build an organization founded on unity, respect, and accountability. These values reflect the reminder that no single member carries an organization alone, every part has a purpose in keeping it standing.

As the organization finds its footing, this moment leaves behind a foundation for the people who will carry its name, make their mark, and contribute to what it will become. The first assembly may open the chapter, but its meaning will live through the members who come after it.

Faculty members of the Civil Engineering Department, Visayas State University Isabel.

The Civil Engineering Department warmly celebrates Engr. Eleujane Abarca and Engr. Cartleo Jay Delegencia as they celebrate another year of life. As newer members of the department, they have begun a meaningful journey as educators, sharing their knowledge, experiences, and dedication with the future Civil Engineers of VSU Isabel.

Though their journey with the department is still in its early chapters, their presence has already become part of the growing academic community, where every lesson shared and every student guided contributes to the development of Civilyans both as future engineers and as individuals.

The Department of Civil Engineering is grateful for their commitment to teaching and for the role they continue to take in supporting the learning journey of its students. May this special day bring them happiness, meaningful moments, and continued growth in the years ahead.

The Civil Engineering Department faculty, along with the Head of the Department of Civil Engineering (DCE), took part in the Seminar-Workshop on the Philippine Technological Council Certification and Accreditation System for Engineering Education (PTC-CASEE) in Preparation for Accreditation Reviews.

Through continuous learning and professional development, the faculty further strengthen the standards that guide the education and experiences of every Civilyan, building not only better engineers, but a stronger foundation for quality engineering education.

He urged them to carry that same determination through the years ahead, where becoming an engineer would demand more than what can be learned from books and calculations.

He left the students with a principle that perhaps carries further than the room itself, ๐›๐ž๐ข๐ง๐  ๐š ๐ ๐จ๐จ๐ ๐ž๐ง๐ ๐ข๐ง๐ž๐ž๐ซ ๐ซ๐ž๐ช๐ฎ๐ข๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐จ๐ง๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ญ๐ž๐œ๐ก๐ง๐ข๐œ๐š๐ฅ ๐ค๐ง๐จ๐ฐ๐ฅ๐ž๐๐ ๐ž ๐š๐ง๐ ๐œ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ž๐ญ๐ž๐ง๐œ๐ž, ๐›๐ฎ๐ญ ๐œ๐ก๐š๐ซ๐š๐œ๐ญ๐ž๐ซ. He further reminded them to remain honest even when others are not, to do what is right even when others will not, and to stand by what is right even when others cannot.

The proposed activities and organizational matters were then presented for approval, followed by the discussion of the ๐‚๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐ญ๐ข๐ญ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐š๐ง๐ ๐๐ฒ-๐‹๐š๐ฐ๐ฌ, the foundation that will define the organizationโ€™s structure, responsibilities, rights, and the principles that will guide those who become part of it.

The assembly also saw changes within the organizationโ€™s officers.

The position was subsequently filled by ๐Š๐š๐ฒ๐ž ๐‘๐จ๐ฃ๐š๐ฌ.

Then came the question of identity.

The proposed organizational logo, designed by ๐Œ๐ซ. ๐Œ๐š๐ซ๐ค ๐†๐š๐ซ๐ž๐ฆ ๐Œ๐ž๐ฆ๐š๐ง, was presented after the assembly and put to a vote. ๐‹๐จ๐ ๐จ ๐ emerged as the chosen design, giving the organization its first visual mark, a symbol that may one day be recognized by people who were not even present when it was first chosen.

Closing remarks was delivered by ๐„๐ง๐ ๐ซ. ๐Œ๐ข๐ญ๐œ๐ก๐ž๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ž ๐ˆ๐š๐ง ๐‚. ๐ƒ๐จ๐ซ๐ข๐š, who brought the gathering back to the weight behind what had been presented that day. The Constitution and By-Laws, he emphasized, are not merely words on paper, but the foundation upon which the organization will stand. Like a structure, no single member can carry the whole weight, every part has its purpose, and strength comes from how each part works with the others.

He reminded the newly onboarded students that engineering ultimately reaches beyond equations and structures. Behind every bridge, road, classroom, hospital, and shelter are people whose lives may be touched by what engineers choose to build. Before they are entrusted with constructing for others, they must first construct something within themselves, ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ž๐ ๐ซ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ, ๐œ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฉ๐š๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง, ๐ก๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ, ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ก๐จ๐ง๐จ๐ซ.

And perhaps that is where beginnings become important.

The people who laid the first foundations of this organization may eventually become names in old documents. The logo may become familiar. The Constitution and By-Laws may become something new members read without knowing the hands that first approved them. Officers will change, generations will pass, and the organization will become something larger than what it was on this day.

Yet somewhere beneath all of that will remain the choices made here.

๐€ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐๐จ๐ž๐ฌ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐š๐ฌ๐ค ๐ญ๐จ ๐›๐ž ๐ซ๐ž๐ฆ๐ž๐ฆ๐›๐ž๐ซ๐ž๐. ๐ˆ๐ญ ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ก๐จ๐ฅ๐๐ฌ ๐ฐ๐ก๐š๐ญ ๐œ๐จ๐ฆ๐ž๐ฌ ๐š๐Ÿ๐ญ๐ž๐ซ ๐ข๐ญ.

And perhaps years from now, when another generation stands where these students once stood, they will never know exactly who carried the first weight.

They will only know that ๐ฌ๐จ๐ฆ๐ž๐จ๐ง๐ž ๐๐ข๐.
