A commitment to ensuring that our campus is not just a place of learning but a community where students feel supported, connected, and empowered. At the heart of these activities is our belief that student welfare extends beyond the classroom. It’s about nurturing the whole person physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially.
Mr. Bisafo noted that the partnership with SINIS reflects a shared vision to create opportunities for students to thrive through sports, wellness initiatives, social events, and support services. He reiterated that together, SINU and SINIS aim to build a vibrant campus life that promotes inclusivity, encourages participation, and creates a welcoming and inclusive community.
Encouraging student engagement, Mr. Bisafo urged students to take advantage of the programs and activities available, emphasizing that participating in clubs, wellness programs, and social interactions would not only enhance their time at SINU but also contribute to their personal and professional growth beyond university life.
Acknowledging the collaboration with SINIS, Mr. Bisafo expressed gratitude for their commitment to enhancing campus life and welfare services. He emphasized that collective efforts can lead to meaningful and lasting change and officially declared the commencement of the SINU Campus Life and Welfare Activities for 2025.
