From Scholar to Nation-Builder: Paying It Forward
Featured Animo Story
For Grant Cheng, being a Lasallian was never just about earning a degree—it was about becoming the kind of person worthy of the opportunity he was given.
As part of the inaugural batch of Star Scholars under the Manufacturing Engineering & Management program, Grant entered De La Salle University with a deep sense of responsibility. “I was always aware of how I needed to live up to the ideals of the scholarship, to show the debt of gratitude, or utang na loob, that I was the right choice,” he recalls. “I never stopped striving to be worthy of that honor and gift.”
That gift led to a college experience that would transform his life. Grant embraced every opportunity to grow—from leading his course organization (SME) and competing with the DLSU Debate Team, to representing the University in international student leadership delegations and pursuing a year-long exchange at the National University of Singapore. “I would say I had a very well-rounded education and experience,” he reflects. “I learned basic machining, programming, simple circuitry, and the basics of business and management from my formal education. But just as importantly, I met my wife in DLSU—we were in the same course.”
