Becoming a consistent advocacy of the Tarlac Agricultural University (TAU) - National Service Training Program (NSTP) through its Civic Welfare and Training Service (CWTS) and Literacy Training Service (LTS) units, the Waste Warriors once again lead the campus-wide waste management effort during the 2025 Intramurals from 19-21 November.

The initiative, led by CWTS Coordinator Mr. Rafael C. Macaspac and LTS Coordinator Ms. Dancel M. Cabintoy, mobilizes their students to serve as “Waste Warriors” who help maintain cleanliness, oversee waste segregation, and encourage their peers to dispose of waste properly.

Now in its second year, the “Waste Warriors” program has become a consistent advocacy activity during TAU’s Intramurals. This year’s volunteers continue the campaign’s mission to foster responsible waste management and strengthen environmental awareness among the TAU community. Many students express pride in being part of a movement that promotes sustainability and contributes to a cleaner campus.

Symbolizing its commitment to diversity and inclusion, the Tarlac Agricultural University (TAU) officially inaugurates the Rainbow Lane, 24 November. The project is a collaborative effort between the Gender and Development (GAD) Office, the General Services Office (GSO), and the Planning and Development Office (PDO). Located at the back of the Learning Resource Center (LRC), the lane serves as a bold, physical affirmation of TAU's pledge to foster a safe and welcoming environment for every member of its community.

The Rainbow Lane instantly becomes a powerful visual statement on campus as its colors represent the full spectrum of identities, promoting a culture of acceptance and equality. This landmark stands as a testament to TAU's ongoing mission to embed inclusiveness into the very fabric of its culture and governance, ensuring that every student, faculty member, and staff member feels valued and respected.
