UST honors faculty retirees
THE UNIVERSITY bade farewell to its 27 faculty retirees last March 22 at the Thomas Aquinas Research Complex.

Velayo College of Accountancy professor Jose Lucido, one of the retirees who had been teaching in the University for 40 years. “This is a call to do more things in our life, even if we are retired.”
