A thousand steps, a thousand stories. The CLSU Alumni Walk, a testament to the enduring bond between alumni and their beloved alma mater, has officially been unveiled at the Dr. Pedro A. Abella Graduation Site. This symbolic pathway, built with the collective generosity of over 1,000 donors, stands as a tribute to the rich history, achievements, and unwavering commitment of the CLSU community.
A Legacy Set in Stone
The CLSU Alumni Walk is more than just a pathway—it is a journey through time. Each step along the walk represents the dedication, hard work, and contributions of the alumni who have passed through CLSU’s halls, shaping the university’s legacy with their successes and unwavering support.
From the initial groundwork to the final brick placement, this project was a labor of love. With the support of the CLSU Alumni Association, faculty, students, and generous donors, the walk was carefully planned and built to reflect the institution’s deep-rooted values. The project also served as a reunion of sorts, rekindling the spirit of camaraderie among alumni who came together to give back to the university that helped shape their futures.
A Thousand Names, A Thousand Memories
With over 1,000 donors contributing to the project, the CLSU Alumni Walk is a powerful representation of the alumni’s gratitude and continued connection to the university. The walk features a mix of pavement bricks and personalized engraved bricks, with the latter to be installed in the next phase. These named bricks will forever be embedded in the university’s landscape, serving as a reminder of the enduring ties between CLSU and its graduates.
“The CLSU Alumni Walk is not just about the bricks—it’s about the people behind them. It’s a celebration of the journeys, dreams, and legacies of those who have called CLSU home,” shared a representative from the CLSU Alumni Association during the unveiling ceremony.
A Milestone to Remember
The unveiling event was a heartwarming occasion, attended by university officials, faculty members, students, and alumni from various batches. The ceremony featured messages of gratitude, a ribbon-cutting, and a walk-through of the new pathway, where attendees reflected on their time at CLSU and the role the university played in their lives.
University President Dr. Evaristo A. Abella expressed appreciation for the overwhelming support that made the project possible. "This Alumni Walk is a powerful symbol of unity and gratitude. It reminds us that while we may go on different paths after graduation, our roots will always be here at CLSU."
More Than a Walk, A Living Legacy
The CLSU Alumni Walk is expected to be a lasting landmark, not only for alumni but for future generations of CLSU students who will walk along this path, inspired by the legacy of those who came before them.
As the project grows, more alumni are encouraged to participate in this meaningful endeavor. With future expansions planned, CLSU looks forward to welcoming more names and stories into this permanent tribute.
Walk With Us
The CLSU Alumni Walk is more than a structure, it is a promise that no matter where life takes its graduates, CLSU will always be a place to come home to.
