In time for its 3rd Midyear Commencement Exercises, the Tarlac Agricultural University (TAU) is upgrading program staging at its Gilberto O. Teodoro Multipurpose Center with a cutting-edge modular LED display system, designed to reduce environmental waste, cut costs, and enhance visual production for campus events.

The three-meter-by-eight-meter Modular Cascaded High-Definition Display System also features Dual-Environment Framework Assemblies and an Integrated Control Core. Its full package includes not only the modular display panels but also an outdoor mobile frame, a dedicated control and signal system, a long-range transmission hardware, a power stability and backup system, a server with AI processing capabilities, an audio interface, and proprietary control software.

According to TAU’s Planning and Development Office (PDO), the high-definition display will drastically reduce, if not completely eliminate, the institution’s reliance on disposable tarpaulins, banners, and similar printed materials, which generate substantial post-event waste. 

The move is also framed as a long-term austerity measure, eliminating recurring printing and mounting costs. The new system is expected to provide superior aesthetic quality and creative flexibility for performances and ceremonies.

Integrated to support the facility as a multifunctional venue for sports, academic programs, cultural events, and institutional functions, the system also serves as a strategic “smart campus” enhancement that helps TAU promote an engaging campus life and position itself as an events hub accessible to stakeholders and partners.

A new cycle in the history of Tarlac Agricultural University (TAU) unfolded in 2026 as the University community welcomed a significant influx of fresh talents and renewed promises. This expansion of TAU’s core workforce reflects a strategic investment in its human capital, reinforcing the University’s mission through merit-based and inclusive appointments. Selected from a highly competitive applicant and labor pool, the new appointees bring deep-seated motivation and sustained devotion to public service.

Among the 61 newly appointed and regularized personnel were several familiar faces whose formal induction further boosted TAU’s academic and administrative pillars. Their appointments mark a notable transition, from years of provisional service to enduring partnership, one built on mutual respect and trust.

For nine years, Ms. Leslie Ann P. Rotoni served TAU’s College of Education (CEd) as an Instructor I under a Contract of Service (COS) and Temporary status, a prolonged period of professional uncertainty that tested her resolve. A holder of a Master of Arts in Education (Physical Science), she remained committed to teaching, nurturing young minds while navigating the instability inherent in contractual employment.

Her greatest challenge was deeply personal, balancing her passion for teaching at TAU with the pull of lucrative opportunities abroad. This quiet struggle reflects the sacrifices made by many COS personnel like her who continue to serve while awaiting full institutional recognition. Now, as a newly regularized Instructor I, Ms. Rotoni stands on firmer ground, strengthened by the affirmation from both her superiors and colleagues.

“I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the trust, support, and opportunity you [TAU] have given me,” she shared. “Being promoted and supported by an organization that believes in my potential is something I truly value. I will work harder for our beloved TAU.”

In a significant move to strengthen its workforce, the Tarlac Agricultural University (TAU) officially administered the oath of office to 61 teaching and non-teaching personnel on 6 January. The simple ceremony, held at the Administration Building Atrium, celebrated new appointments, changes in employment status, and reappointments, highlighting TAU's commitment to rewarding merit and dedication to public service.

The new appointees represent a vital boost to the University's human resources. Among the teaching staff, advancements included five moving from temporary to permanent status, three from Contract of Service (COS) to permanent status, three from COS to temporary status, and 29 reappointments (temporary). They were joined by 21 non-teaching staff who assumed their roles following an exceptionally competitive selection process that attracted over 1,500 applications, as revealed by the Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) for Administration, Ms. Yolanda F. Juan.

Presiding over the ceremony, TAU President Dr. Silverio Ramon DC. Salunson focused his address on a philosophy of genuine excellence. He also advised the inductees to avoid comparison and focus on delivering their personal best.
