JBLCF-Bacolod Supreme Student Government

Good day, every Juan! 💙

We have received and acknowledged your concerns regarding some of the departmental designs that may have been AI-generated.

We would also like to remind everyone that, as clearly stated in the official contest guidelines, that the use of Ai generated designs is prohibited and will be automatically disqualified.

Rest assured that before we officially announce the winners, we will ask the participants to submit their design materials, drafts, or other proof of the design process to verify that their entries were genuinely created by them.

We believe that submitting AI-generated designs without proper disclosure would be unfair and disrespectful to our fellow Lacsonians who poured their imagination, creativity, time, and effort into creating their designs.

As your leaders, we want to assure you that we will do our best to ensure that proper credit is given to those who truly put in the effort to create their departmental shirts. Our goal is not only to make this competition exciting and enjoyable but also to celebrate and showcase the creativity, originality, and brilliant talents of our students.

We sincerely appreciate your understanding, patience, and continued support. Let us work together to make this competition a fair, transparent, and meaningful celebration of Lacsonian creativity! 💙✨

Thank you, everyone, and good luck to all participants! 🏆👕

The wait is over, every Juan! 👕🔥
