On August 27, 2024, the College of Education (COE) donated computers and visited Bacolor Integrated School (BIS) as part of their social responsibility activity titled 'Adopt a Pupil Literacy Program' and Bacolor High School (BHS) for the ‘Math Tutorial Numeracy Project,’ which promotes an experiential foundation of basic education learners.
