Resilient Leaders: Sustainable Futures​

ROLYN C. DAGUIL. PhD
University President

At the heart of Caraga State University’s mission is our LIKHA Agenda. This has been our blueprint to Lead Innovation, Knowledge, and Holistic Advancement. LIKHA, a Filipino word that means “to create” or “to develop,” reflects our core commitment to designing solutions that are innovative and sustainable. It is our compass as we nurture globally competitive professionals and lifelong learners who are rooted in the core values of this university—Competence, Service, and Uprightness.

To my dear graduates, your journey to this point has demanded perseverance, adaptability, and commitment to learning. As you set sail into the world brimming with exciting opportunities and intricate challenges, may you be anchored to the knowledge and skills honed through your CSU education and the responsibility to lead with purpose, compassion, and vision.

You are living embodiments of the LIKHA vision. Whether you are entering the workforce, advancing your studies, or leading initiatives in your communities, whichever path you choose, be creators of ideas, of solutions, of change. Let the LIKHA spirit guide your voyage: be problem-solvers, be builders of hope, and be champions of sustainability and social equity.
