SECTION II
BRIEF HISTORY OF MANUEL V. GALLEGO FOUNDATION COLLEGES, INC.
Dr. Manuel Viola Gallego, an educator, legislator, and diplomat founded the Central
Luzon School of Nursing (CLSN) in 1960, the first School of Nursing in Region 3. His
philosophy in founding the Institution was for the less fortunate in life to be afforded full
opportunities to achieve total development a better life and better society.
Initially, the Central Luzon School of Nursing was an operating unit of Philippine
Statesman College in 1960, hence was named Central Luzon Philippine Statesman College
School of Nursing upon negotiation with Mr. Felipe Estrella, President of the Philippine
Statesman College. In November 1964, it became the Central Luzon Educational Center
(CLEC), School of Nursing when the College of Liberal Arts was established which was then
incorporated into law by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In 1974, Dr. Gallego changed the name of CLEC into the Manuel V. Gallego
Foundation Colleges, Inc. (MVGFCI), a non-sectarian, non-profit educational foundation. He
envisioned the school to be the “Nursery of Fundamental Human Freedoms”, thus his
philosophy of founding the school remains not only throughout his life but also to his
successors who have endeavored to remain true to his vision.
The school now offers programs in Nursing, Education, Criminology, Computer

Science, Accountancy, and Business in the College and Graduate levels. It also has a Basic
Education program which now offers a Senior High School.
MVGFC offers well-designed and highly relevant programs and modules that are
strongly complemented by extension projects and researches. It provides a conducive
learning environment that fosters quality and holistic development of the students and
produces graduates who will contribute significantly in the improvement of the quality of life in
their respective communities. To deliver quality education, it hires qualified, competent, and
dedicated educators and support personnel who continuously show innovation and
responsiveness in their work.
There is a strong faculty development program being implemented by the institution.

The Administration supports In-House and off-campus training programs and workshops to
improve content mastery and learning delivery techniques of faculty members. Educational
subsidies are also provided to faculty, who are encouraged to obtain graduate and post-
graduate degrees. The faculty and staff can also avail of different kinds of loan programs at
low interest rates for various purposes. Also, there are several scholarships program that
offers varying degrees of financial assistance to deserving students
The slogan “MVGFC is the key to a brighter future” has enabled the realization of a
better future and life for many of our graduates.

aims/goals, purpose and function as one of the leading private college in Nueva Ecija. The
administration will see to it that their actions are done with integrity, honesty and fairness

Educational Philosophies:
Learning
 We believe that students learn best when they apply their learning in real-world
situations; when content is relevant to their lives; when they ask critical, probing
questions of the subject matter; and when they are actively engaged in their
own learning.
Teaching
 We believe that the role of teachers is primarily that of a facilitator of learning, a

coach, a mentor, and a learning resource.
 We believe in using a variety of innovative teaching strategies to enhance

mastery level learning by the students. We believe that students have different
P a g e | 10
learning styles and that the teacher must use different strategies to adapt to
these different learning styles.
 We believe that a truly outstanding teacher is someone who can bring the best
out of his or her students in terms of academic performance and personal
development and someone who can make the worst performing class - the best
performing class.
Empowerment
 We believe in empowering the deans, chairs, faculty, and staff to exercise

leadership to achieve the Vision and Mission of the school in tune with the
Institutional Philosophy and Values for this is the key to transform the Institution
into a learning, self-organizing, and living entity.
Facilities
 We believe in committing ourselves to having an environment that is clean,

comfortable, pleasant, quiet, safe, organized, and orderly is essential to enable
students to learn, our faculty to teach, and our staff to work. Our students,
faculty, chairs, dean, support personnel, and management have the attitude
that the school is their home, they have pride in it, and thus, they treat it with
respect and with caring.
 We believe in providing appropriate facilities so that our employees and staff

can work productively, our faculty to teach effectively, and our students to learn
and develop holistically.
Technology
 We believe that Technology is an important tool to enhance and promote

learning teaching, instruction, and research. We shall endeavor to expose our
stakeholders to technology and how it is changing the way we do things and
how we live.
Curriculum
 We believe in having a highly relevant, seamlessly sequenced, balanced, and

multi-disciplined Curriculum to enable our students to be competitive in their
profession or business and happy in their lives.
 We believe in actively seeking the feedback of our faculty, administrators,

experts, employers, students, and other stakeholders in improving our
curriculum.
P a g e | 11
 We believe that the delivery of the curriculum must be flexible and responsive
to learner needs.
Congruence of all Programs and Activities to Vision/Mission
 We believe that all programs and activities must be aligned and congruent to
the Objectives, Goals, and Ultimately, the Vision/Mission of the Institution. It
must be clear how each Program, Activity, and Task contributes to the
achievement of the Vision/Mission.
Trust
 We believe in living up to the trust repose in us by our stakeholders, especially

our students, their parents or guardians, and the community and strive to
exceed their expectations in every endeavor. We shall consistently show them
through our actions and performance that we are deserving of their trust.
Operational Efficiency
 We believe in continuously improving our Operational Efficiency by delivering

relevant and quality education at a reasonable price and by having appropriate
systems, databases, policies, processes, rules and regulations, and manuals.
Institutional Effectiveness
 We believe in continuously improving our Effectiveness as an Educational

Institution as manifested by the achievement of our Goals and Objectives.
Equitable Access
 We believe in providing assistance and opportunities to poor but deserving

students to enable them to graduate from the field of their chosen endeavors
and contribute to the betterment of their respective communities.
Capability Building
 We believe in committing ourselves to the proper selection and continuous

development of our faculty members. We expect them to care deeply for the
learning of their students and to strongly manifest that caring through their
P a g e | 12
teaching effectiveness, coaching and mentoring of students, taking active

steps in extracurricular activities, and contribution to Institutional building.
 We believe in committing ourselves to the continuous development of our

Deans and Chairs. We expect them to be primarily responsible for the financial
viability of their respective programs, for the proper supervision, development,
and evaluation of their faculty members, and for the achievement of
performance targets.
 We believe in committing ourselves to the continuous development of our

employees and staff. We expect them to care for the Institution as if it was their
home and to care for our students and learners as if they were their close
relatives. We expect them to be models of the values of the Foundation. We
also expect them to be efficient, effective, productive, courteous, work with
teams, communicate clearly, and act with integrity at all times. We expect them
to have a high degree of productive collaboration with each other and the
academic units.
Library as an Important Learning Resource
 We believe in the important role of the Librarian and her staff to work actively
with the Dean, Chairs, and faculty in improving instruction, relevance of
content, teaching materials, evaluation, research, and extension, and co- and
extra curricular programs.
Recognition
 We take great pride and will take every opportunity to recognize outstanding
performance, admirable effort, great improvement, and meaningful
contributions and assistance from our faculty, staff, employees, students,
parents, and other stakeholders.
Research
 We believe that research work must be relevant to the improvement and

understanding of instruction, teaching, and learning. Management is committed
and the faculty and chairs are likewise committed to develop the research
capability of the faculty; increase their research output and the utilization of the
research results.
P a g e | 13
Extension
 We believe in voluntarily sharing our individual and collective expertise and

resources with the community for the purpose of improving the quality of life.
Strong visible presence – management by “walking around”
 We believe in a ‘hands-on’ management style by being where the action is –

observing, evaluating, analyzing, interacting, asking, probing, learning, and
understanding the situation, problem, and needs.
Change
 We believe that change is constant. The increasingly rapid, intense, dynamic,

and profound changing realities in the global and local community require us to
continuously monitor our external and internal environment, to make adaptive
decisions, and to constantly reinvent ourselves and our institution.
Communication
 We believe in the “Network” organization where communication is not only

horizontal, but vertical, lateral, and diagonal. A learning organization has open
communication channels that enable sharing of information and giving of
feedback in a timely manner to improve decisions.
Lifelong Learning
 We believe that the learning is lifelong and that a person will have continuing
learning needs throughout his or her lifetime to enable him or her to live a
productive, fulfilled, and happy life.
Leadership
 We believe that ALL of our faculty, employees, administrators, and students

can and should be leaders.
Co – and Extra-Curricular Programs
 We believe in the vital role of co- and extra-curricular programs in the holistic
development of our learners.
