An annual report is often a record of an institution’s accomplishments. Not that in a particular year, all
had been glorious and there were no problems. There always are, and these are duly acknowledged,
discussed and analyzed. However, we do not want to magnify them but use these challenges instead
to jumpstart our directions for the future. It is my job as head of this academe to focus on the positive
things to further fuel our commitment to move onwards.
The year 2015 was our golden year as a university although we have existed as an academic institution
for 105 years as of September 2015. This academe became Central Mindanao University on June 19,
1965. Not everyone had the privilege to be part of the dual celebration we tagged as “CMU 50 | 105”.
It was both humbling and honoring to mark the momentous year at the helm of CMU.
Last year was again a record of our triumphs above the challenges. And, it had been achieved not
by my singular effort but out of the integrated work and contribution of everyone. One important
milestone was the approval by the CMU Board of Regents and the launch of the New CMU Code
of 2015. (What we had for the past decades was our 1970 Code.) It now has adequate provisions to
extend the relevance and impact of CMU beyond our usual clientele and our comfort zones, among
others.
Gold is beautiful. This university is beautiful. It is not perfect but its beauty attracts many people
to establish their roots and build their lives here. It is stronger because it always survives the test of
times and has grown through challenges - like gold that is tested in fire. I believe that this academic
community subsists on the wisdom that “hard does not mean impossible”. It had been bent and
reshaped, but is never broken. I propose that it survives because it tries its best to honor its existence
i.e. to be a relevant agent in shaping this country by developing and molding many young people’s
lives to make themselves and their families better, and consequently, make their communities and this
country better.
CMU has more distance to go. I believe that as we slowly equip our university with better and more
physical facilities, we are also, in parallel, equipping our constituents to have a stronger moral fiber ---
to have more “CMU Pride” which is the sense of accountability to honor its good name and history, as
well as, to contribute and continue its traditions of excellence.
We have honored many traditions of this academe, yet we also recognize the need to create new
ones, so as to make CMU more relevant in the changing times, seasons or climate. We look forward to
a better climate of integrity, excellence, cooperation, growth, progress, and transformation.
We have reached the golden mark but we cannot rest on our laurels.
We need to create opportunities for our continuous growth, the
kind of growth that is both tangible and non-tangible. Being
golden is not just about ageing or a longer history.
The number of years does not carry much
meaning if there is no increased wisdom
through the years. Ageing is useless if there
is no sustained vision and commitment
to be better every year i.e. to build a
better academic culture, to deepen our
character, and to strengthen our values.
Like gold, we need to be polished and
refined in order to shine and radiate our
relevance even beyond the Philippine
borders.

It aims to promote the role of
the youth in nation-building,
encourage the youth to
become civic and/or military
leaders and volunteers
who are always ready and
available for the nation in case
their services are needed.
In addition, the NSTP conducts
trainings and lectures on
the five core dimensions of
development, namely: (1)
citizenship training; (2) drugs
education; (3) environmental
education, (4) disaster risk
reduction and management;
and (5) national security
concerns; and peace
education.
On March 7, 2015, the

NEXTENSION
“CMU tirelessly supports extension activities by
mobilizing, facilitating and bridging experts and
target clientele through capability-building, people
and community empowerment, and technology
promotion and commercialization.”
The University Extension Office (UEO) implements and facilitates several programs for farmers,
homemakers, out-of-school youth, as well as, entire communities, to become productive and self-
reliant. For 2015, the University allocated PhP 2,524,363.75 for various extension programs/projects.
Community-based
Sustainable Development
Program (COMBASUDEP)
This is a unified and integrated
extension program of the
University implemented
through the various college
extension committees. This
program enables the nine
colleges to reach out to some
communities. It envisions
a community meaningfully
linked with outside resources,
where multi-livelihood projects
are sustained through people
empowerment.
CMU-CHED– University
Network with Local
Government for
Agricultural Development
(CMU-CHED-UNLAD)
This is a collaborative
program between CMU
and the Local Government
Units (LGUs) as funded by
CHED. It aims to strengthen
the capability of the partner
LGU (Barangay Dologon) in
delivering extension services
effectively for food security
and sustainable development.
It also seeks to empower
farmers to become globally
competitive by providing
appropriate technologies and
relevant information. There
are three techno-projects in
this program: CMU Vegetable
Technology Park, Dologon
Technology Park (Swine and
Goat Production) Projects, and
the Farmers Information and
Technology Services (FITS) and
Information, Education and
Communication (IEC) Center
in Barangay Dologon.
Barangay Integrated
Development Approach
for Nutrition Improvement
(BIDANI)
This program aims to help
improve the nutrition and
general well-being of the rural
poor through more effective
barangay and municipal
structures, as well as, building
the capabilities of the LGUs
in planning and managing
poverty alleviation, and at
meeting the basic needs
of the vulnerable sectors of
their service areas. In 2015, it
had served about 300 clients
from 10 barangays under
the 3 project components:
Barangay Integrated
Development Approach
(BIDA), Participative Nutrition
Approach (PNEA), and
Barangay Management
Information System (BMIS).
Entrepreneurial Project for
Homemakers and Out-of-
School Youth
This project caters to the
training requests from
LGUs related to handicraft
making, food preservation
and processing. It develops
bamboo crafts and corn husk
products for demonstration
and for sale. This project
received the most number of
training requests from different
LGUs in Bukidnon and other
provinces. For 2015, the UEO
received 14 training requests
and served more than 500
homemakers.
Most of the trainings
conducted were on
handicraft items with varying
designs. The UEO’s Techo-
Demo Service Unit (TDSU) also
produces corsage flowers
made from corn husks and
leis out of Bukidnon materials
called tinabas. These are sold
at PhP 100.00 to PhP 150.00
depending on the customers’
demand.

CMU-DAR KFCRD-
Integrated Agricultural
Development Program
(IADP)
This program is in partnership
with the Department of
Agrarian Reform (DAR) to
showcase development
interventions at the farm level
through proper delivery of
mature, viable, and profitable
technologies from CMU.
Advisory Services
and Expertise
CMU professors are tapped
by various organizations at the
local, regional, national, and
international levels as resource
persons based on their fields
of specialization or areas
of expertise. They serve as
members of technical panels,
consultants, research advisers,
evaluators, panelists, paper
reviewers, and accreditors,
among others.
CMU Village-Level
Bio-Con Laboratory
The Bio-Con Laboratory of
CMU is considered as one of
the milestones of the UEO.
It serves the farmers nearby
and allows them to acquire
biological control (biocon)
agents against pests and
diseases in their farms. Through
the Lab, the farmer adopters
from Southern Bukidnon
can have biocon materials
without going to the Regional
Crop Protection (RCPC)
at Bangcud, Malaybalay,
Bukidnon.
The Bio-Con Lab aims to:
produce biocon agents, train
farmers how to release and
utilize biocon agents against
insect pests in the rice field,
reduce farmers’ reliance on
the use of insecticides against
adoption of CMU-generated
technologies and other
commodities promoted
during the information drives.
Results show that majority of
the respondents adopted the
technologies promoted by
CMU.
University Extension
Trainings Conducted
Through the full support
of the various colleges in
the conduct of numerous
extension activities, the
University organized trainings
based on the needs of the

with better and more physical facilities, we are also, in parallel, equipping our
constituents to have a stronger moral fiber --- to have more “CMU Pride”
which is the sense of accountability to honor its good name and history, as well as,
to contribute and continue its traditions of excellence.” - MLRSoliven
