Northwestern Visayan Colleges gears up for 72nd Foundation Day, College Fest
For 72 years, the Northwestern Visayan Colleges (NVC) persistently equips its learners with capabilities they require to become globally competitive, economically productive, environmentally responsible, and morally upright.
Providing quality education to everyone regardless of age, creed, gender or economic status is no easy feat so it is only fitting that they celebrate what has been achieved over the past 72 years and reflect on the commitment, resilience and dedication that the founding fathers had displayed to see their vision of a high quality institute of higher learning come to reality.
For these reasons, NVC will celebrate its 72nd Foundation Day and College Festival on February 26-28, 2020 with the theme: “Greater Strides at 72; Aim for Excellence and Resilience”.
This year’s three-day celebration will commence with a Thanksgiving Mass which will be held at the Rustico S. Quimpo (RSQ) Grounds at 8 o’clock in the morning of February 26.
A series of activities that will showcase NVCians’ excellence and fortitude follows with the ribbon-cutting ceremonies for the Exhibit of Different Departments.
One of this year’s highlights is the Miss NVC Sweetheart and King of Hearts Grand Coronation Night which will be held on the night of Feb. 26 at the NVC CSQ Gymnasium, Capitol Site, Kalibo, Aklan.
To give tribute for their support to the vision and mission of the institution, a special production depicting the Barter of Panay will be presented in honor of Her Majesty Queen Mia Pascual and His Highness King Rhandel Dave Dimo, together with their royal court.
