Nais naming buksan ang pinto ng Unibersidad upang maipakilala ang gawain, adbokasiya, at maging ang mumunting komunidad namin sa loob ng pamantasan.Magkakaroon ng tour sa aming mapagkalingang tahanan – mga espasyong hindi karaniwang nakikita sa publiko ngunit buhay na patunay ng pagsusulong ng open and distance e-learning (ODeL). Bukod sa pagbisita sa mga espasyo, ipapakita rin sa atin sa unang pagkakataon ang exhibit ni Carlo Dimaano, Artist-in-Residence/Futurist-in-Residence ng Faculty of Information and Communication Studies na pinamagatang Aglomerasyon: Mga Tunog at Imahe ng Ilusyon at Alyenasyon. At siyempre, magkakaroon din ng mga palaro at mumunting papremyo. Halina’t samahan kami sa pagbubukas ng ika-30 anibersaryo ng UPOU! Umaasa kami sa inyong pagdalo!#UPOpenUniversity #publicservice #UPOUat30 #AUPAEU #AUPWU ... See MoreSee Less
