Christmas Message

of ISAT U President Dr. Gabriel M. Salistre Jr.

Dear ISAT U Family, As the festive spirit sparkles around us, let us take a moment to reflect on our university’s remarkable journey this year. We stand with hearts brimming with gratitude for the blessings bestowed upon us. In every milestone, we saw the guiding hand of the Almighty.

2023 was a year of extraordinary growth and achievements, each one a testament to our unwavering dedication. This year, we successfully hired 69 permanent faculty members and nearly a hundred non-teaching personnel, alongside promoting some of our dedicated employees. Our students excelled in licensure examinations, proudly showcasing the exceptional education we provide. From compelling projects to improved facilities, from impactful community outreaches to pioneering ventures in science and technology, every step we took was blessed with divine providence.

Now, as we stand on the cusp of a new year, our hearts brim with anticipation and hope. We extend our deepest gratitude for the continued commitment of our stakeholders in propelling ISAT U forward. May this coming year nurture our partnership, building bridges to even greater heights.

In the year ahead, let’s strengthen our commitment to collaboration. May the spirit of unity, compassion, and shared purpose guide us as we strive to fulfill the vision and mission of our beloved university. Let us foster an environment of learning, innovation, and inclusivity, guided by the values that define us. With unwavering faith in our collective efforts and trust in God’s guidance, we embrace the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.

This Christmas, let’s celebrate not only the season’s joy but also the blessings of progress, growth, and community. May the warmth of this festive season illuminate our hearts and inspire us to build a brighter future for our university and all it serves. As we gather with loved ones, let’s also remember the greatest gift of all: the love of God bestowed upon us through His Son, Jesus Christ. Wishing you and your loved ones a Merry Christmas filled with peace, joy, and the blessings of togetherness.

Gabriel M. Salistre, Jr., PEE, D.I.T.
