UP@100: Vinzons UPgrade

posted by Joseph Miguel Gutierrez | May 27, 2008

 

Known far and wide as an icon of student leadership, activism and involvement, Vinzons Hall was established as the university’s premiere student center. Through the course of its existence, it has been a leadership training ground for the Iskolars para sa bayan. However, over the past few years, the physical structure of Vinzons Hall has rapidly been deteriorating. The downgrade of its physical condition has greatly affected its image as a student center. Hence, this centennial year, the university student council recognizes the need to re-establish its true essence as a premiere student center.

 

Spearheaded by the USC Vinzons Hall Committee, the Vinzons UPgrade renovation project is a joint effort with various UP students and organizations. The aim is to tap into the skills of various students from their respective fields of expertise. The entire restoration project encompasses a long term plan involving four key phases. The first phases focus on the renovation and restoration of its existing facilities. The goal of this phase is to preserve the architectural heritage of Vinzons by applying modern day designs to further emphasize its historical features. This renovation phase shall then be followed by the integration of relevant student services into these facilities. All these are geared towards the establishment of a true student union. Funds for the restoration shall be raised through alumni solicitations and corporate marketing. We aim to complete the first phase before the end of 2008.
