In celebration of its Sesquicentennial (150) Founding Anniversary, Don Honorio Ventura Technological State University or DHVTSU conferred the Outstanding Alumni distinctions to nine graduates who have excelled in their respective fields of specialization during the Grand Alumni Homecoming held on December 10, 2011 at the DHVTSU Gymnasium.

The Committee on the Search for the Outstanding Alumni, chaired by Dr. Laura Miriam B. Buenviaje, selected the awardees in various fields of specialization such as Leadership Empowerment in Education, Entrepreneurship and Employment Creation, Corporate Social Responsibility, Women Empowerment, Arts and Culture, Public Service, Poverty Alleviation and Human Development, and Science and Technology.

Dr. Ernesto T. Nicdao, former DHVCAT president and awardee for Leadership Empowerment in Education, said he will treasure the distinction throughout his life because it was given by the institution he served for almost 21 years.
