Prof. Victor C. Cañezo, Jr., EdD, CHRP, President of Biliran Province State University (BiPSU), showcased the university’s recent milestones and strategic roadmap during his guesting on the Provincial Government’s flagship radio program, “Serbisyong Biliranon ni Dok Roger Espina,” aired over 103.9 Radyo Natin, Naval on April 29.

Hosted by Mr. Jorge Mangco and Mr. Jeane Sanjorjo, the program served as a platform for Prof. Cañezo to discuss the university's "weaving of worthiness" (WoW) narrative and its impact on the province’s development.

A major highlight of the interview was the celebration of BiPSU’s historic performance at the recently concluded 39th Regional SCUAA Games in Tacloban City. For the second consecutive time, BiPSU emerged as the Overall Champion, a feat the President attributed to the collective efforts of the "WoW BiPSU" community and the strong support of local leaders.

Prof. Cañezo expressed deep gratitude to Governor Rogelio J. Espina and Congressman Gerryboy Espina for their unwavering support. He noted that the financial assistance and personal encouragement provided by the province's top officials served as a vital morale booster for the student-athletes, coaches, and trainers.

The President also provided an update regarding the revival of the Bachelor of Science in Marine Transportation (BSMT) program. With the transition of maritime education supervision to the Maritime Industry Authority (MARINA) effective January 2026, Prof. Cañezo shared a "silver lining" for the program’s reopening.

He revealed that the university has already invested approximately ₱25 million in state-of-the-art facilities, including high-fidelity simulators, to ensure 100% compliance with international standards. While a moratorium on new programs remains in place, Prof. Cañezo emphasized that BiPSU is being considered in the "pipeline" of applications.

Addressing the challenges of an ever-growing student population—now reaching roughly 13,000 learners—Prof. Cañezo detailed the university’s innovative two-shift class system. By scheduling classes from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM and 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM, the university maximizes its facilities without compromising the quality of education or student well-being.

"This system ensures our students have enough time for both classroom learning and independent study," Prof. Cañezo explained. The success of this approach is reflected in BiPSU’s academic performance, most notably the 100% passing rate in the Nursing licensure examinations and a high overall average across various board programs.

Prof. Cañezo concluded by thanking the parents, stakeholders, and the Provincial Government for their continued partnership, reaffirming that BiPSU will continue to weave worthiness into the lives of every Biliranon. #WoWBiPSU
