WHEREAS, the Tomas Oppus Community College in Barangay San Isidro, Municipality of Tomas Oppus, Province of Southern Leyte, with its very limited resources, can only offer the Bachelor of Science in Education and Liberal Arts courses, and therefore cannot meet the needs of the Province of Leyte for teachers to enhance the educational development of the Province as well as the municipalities bordering the province;
