𝗡𝗘𝗪𝗦 | Renovated Campus Facilities completed, now ready to use
Three newly renovated facilities at Cagayan State University–Sanchez Mira were officially completed and declared ready for use following a blessing ceremony on February 16, 2025.
The Executive Comfort Room, Budget and Finance Office, and Counseling Office underwent infrastructure improvements to enhance service delivery, ensure secure document storage, and provide a more comfortable and organized environment for students and personnel.
Fr. Lodovikus Mamu Oten, SVD, led the blessing ceremony, which was attended by university officials headed by Officer-in-Charge President Engr. Arthur G. Ibañez, along with faculty members, staff, alumni representatives, and student leaders.
Campus Executive Officer Dr. Rodel Francisco T. Alegado initiated the renovations in response to concerns regarding the condition of comfort rooms and the need for improved office space and file security.
The project was implemented in coordination with the CSU Sanchez Mira Alumni Association, led by President Ardeth Jane S. Dulig-Oamil, and the Plans, Designs, and Construction Office.
According to Dr. Retchel Hernandez Clemente, campus alumni association officer, the renovated Executive Comfort Room was intended to provide students and staff with a proper space for hygiene and grooming while encouraging shared responsibility in maintaining cleanliness.
Architect Roland Edrome Laxa, infrastructure coordinator of the Plans, Designs, and Construction Office, said separate rooms were constructed for the Budget and Finance Office and Counseling Office to ensure privacy, improve service efficiency, and secure important records.
With the completion of the renovations, the facilities were expected to strengthen administrative operations and create a more conducive campus environment.
