AS THE University of Guam celebrates 60 years as an institution for higher learning, a proclamation signing was held in Adelup last Feb. 17. Gov. Eddie Calvo honored the university’s commitment to quality education.
Joined by UOG President Dr. Robert Underwood, the UOG Board of Regents, administration, faculty, staff and students, Calvo proclaimed March 13 in honor of the institution’s 44th Charter Day. Charter Week Ceremonies are set for March 11 through 17.
“Education is our first line of defense against poverty. From giving students the opportunity for rewarding careers to the research that provides direction to make our community stronger, UOG and the Tritons are helping to set the pace for a stronger future,” Calvo said in a statement. “It’s the premier university in the region and it’s the foundation of knowledge for so many of the leaders and professionals who make Guam what it is today.”
