The BS in Nutrition and Dietetics First Year Students for AY 2025–2026 were officially welcomed into the department during the Freshmen Orientation held last September 10, 2025, at the Maritime Building.
The milestone became even more memorable with the presence of the parents, who proudly accompanied their children as they began a new chapter in their educational path. The program then unfolded with the invocation and hymns, followed by warm greetings from the department head. Freshmen were introduced to the department’s faculty and organizational structure, important university policies, the BSND curriculum, and Republic Act No. 10862 or the “Nutrition and Dietetics Law of 2016.” Sessions also covered dental orientation, guidelines on thesis preparation, and practicum requirements, all designed to guide students through their academic journey.
The event likewise highlighted student involvement as the Society of Student Nutritionist-Dietitians (SSND) presented its revised constitution and by-laws, inducted its new set of officers, and distributed SSND pins as a welcome treat for being new members of the organization.
As one of the program’s highlights, Dr. Benedicto T. Militante, Jr., Vice President for Academic Affairs, delivered an inspirational message that urged the freshmen to face challenges with integrity, service, and excellence. The event ended on a hopeful note, encouraging the BSND freshmen as they take their first steps in EVSU.
