An advocate here wants the Southern Luzon State University (SLSU) be changed to Lucban State University through a municipal ordinance.
LUCBAN, Quezon – An advocate here wants the Southern Luzon State University be changed to Lucban State University through a municipal ordinance.
In his letter, Dator said the request for change in school name is meant to ‘to accord tribute to the sacrifices of the past leaders who made an effort to institute the university.’ Dator’s letter pointed out that since in 1964 when SLSU until 1981 when the name was changed into Southern Luzon Polytechnic College , the school carried ‘Lucban’ in its name.
Dator’s father, Hobart Sr., was then the mayor of Lucban when he established Lucban Municipal Junior High School and both the older and younger Hobart graduated from the school, as well as the other son, Serafin, who later also became the town’s mayor. Dator reiterated he has no other intention with his proposal other than giving due credit to their town for hosting and harnessing remarkable talents from all the graduates of the state university in their town.
