𝑯𝒂𝒑𝒑𝒚 𝑩𝒊𝒓𝒕𝒉𝒅𝒂𝒚, 𝑺𝒊𝒓, 𝑪𝒂𝒑𝒕, 𝑨𝒎𝒂𝒉𝒂𝒏!

Sending our warmest wishes to the one and only Sir/Capt. Arman Briones, a person known not just as an adviser, but also as a father and a friend. Someone with boundless patience who truly believes in his students’ capabilities rather than their limitations, guiding them as they take steady steps toward achieving their dreams.

Your ANCLA family wishes you all the blessings in the world, just as you have been a blessing to each and every one of us. May you continue to inspire, guide, and touch more lives in the years to come.

The most anticipated leadership gathering in UC-METC is just one sleep away.

The wait is over. The challenge begins.

Stay ready, stay focused, and come prepared to take your place among future leaders. Tomorrow at exactly 8:00 AM, we meet at the UC-METC I-Building Study Hall to sharpen our minds, strengthen our discipline, and ignite the leader within.

This is more than attendance. This is commitment.

See you there!

The Aspiring Nautical Cadets Leaders Association (ANCLA), the official SBO of the BSMT Department, successfully conducted its Monthly Executive Meeting on March 23, 2026, reinforcing its commitment to leadership, transparency, and service. The meeting opened with a comprehensive evaluation of the recently concluded Intramurals, highlighting both achievements and areas for growth, followed by the formal introduction of new members who are set to contribute fresh energy and ideas to the organization.

Key discussions also included the presentation of the organization’s financial status, ensuring accountability and clarity among its officers. Plans for the remaining semester were strategically laid out, alongside preparations for upcoming team-building activities aimed at strengthening unity within the group. Additionally, initial steps for election planning were tackled to ensure a smooth and organized leadership transition.

With clear direction and shared purpose, ANCLA continues to demonstrate what effective student leadership looks like—quietly setting the standard while staying grounded in service and excellence.

𝐁𝐒𝐌𝐓, 𝐁𝐔𝐒𝐎𝐆 𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐌𝐈 𝐒𝐀 𝐓𝐑𝐎𝐏𝐇𝐘! (No Gaslighting Needed)

Why rest for this semester when we can win it full speed ahead? That’s the question our dear Marine Transportation athletes and delegates asked themselves when they competed for the OVERALL CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY that’s literally just an inch away (yes, we clinched it again without wasting a drop of sweat).

Whoever said gluttony is a sin surely isn’t from BSMT coz Orcael’s people are never full to bag as many golds as they can. Last semester, we BAKED the cake. This semester, we DEVOURED the cake that we forgot to remember that other departments exist. We are still kind of course so we left a few grains of silver and bronze for them, but we can’t donate any further—it’s against the Anti-Mendicancy Law.

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank our opponents for trying. And we sincerely thank all of our coaches, delegates, contestants and athletes for bringing home the bacon for the Nth time.

Till the next Intramurals, BLUE ORCAS!
