(FACEBOOK / MANILA BULLETIN) The building consists of 33 laboratories and a 500-seater auditorium on the seventh floor which will cater to the 8,600 students of the university. Bautista noted the ground floor of the structure will also serve as an ‘incubation facility’ of BS Entrepreneur students. “To the officers, the men, and women of QCU, President Enriquez, the students, lahat ng graduates, alumni, pati 'yung guards, janitors, maraming maraming maraming salamat sa inyo. Pangalagaan niyo ito at huwag sisirain (to all the graduates, alumni, even the guards, janitors, thank you very much. Take good care and do not destroy this),” Bautista said. The city-owned university has another seven-story academic building under construction and two other buildings undergoing renovation. QCU (formerly known as the Quezon City Polytechnic University) offers five four-year degree programs including BS Entrepreneur, BS Information Technology, BS Electrical Engineering, BS Industrial Engineering, and BS Accountancy. Bautista has always put premium in the value of education stressing it provides a greater chance to a better life. Recently in a bid to cut classroom shortage in the city, Bautista said that he will be leaving “a legacy with education as one of his major priorities’’. Before Bautista’s term as chief executive ends this month, more school buildings will be inaugurated in the city. Under the Bautista administration, the city government has spent over P3 billion for the construction of additional buildings and P743 million for the maintenance of existing structures. The city government also was able to cut classroom shortage from 3,000 to 1,000. Most recently Bautista led other officials in the inauguration of a four-story school building at Manuel A. Roxas High School (MARHS) in Barangay Paligsahan. The P71.8 million building has 12 classrooms and will be used by over 1,500 students in June. MARHS now has a total of 42 classrooms. “Sana sa pangalagaan ng mga estudyante itong building na ito kasi para sa kanila rin naman ito (I hope the students take care of the building since this will benefit them),” Bautista said. Bautista noted highly-urbanized cities like “QC have the biggest problem in terms of classroom shortage”. With the assistance of the national government, Bautista said his administration has considerably cut the classroom shortage woes in the city.
