Ditucalan, the Vice-Chancellors, College Deans, faculty, staff, and students gathered for the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony, marking the opening of the integrated turnstile gate and boom barrier.

Chancellor Ditucalan also discussed how this system can record the population of students more specifically, given that it can easily track the volume per day.
