The CA-LSG strongly condemns the ongoing mockery directed at our Governor. Such behavior is baseless, malicious, and contrary to the values of respect and solidarity we uphold.

The tarpaulin was placed not only to welcome returning students but most especially to extend our embrace to shifters and transferees. This initiative reflects the CA-LSG’s commitment to creating a welcoming environment for those who have chosen to shift from other Colleges into the College of Agriculture. We recognize that shifting is a difficult decision, and we stand as their ates and kuyas, ready to ease their integration into the CA community.

On January 23, 2026, we proudly conducted the "Panag-uban CA-Pamilya: A Psycho-Spiritual Fellowship for Shifters and Transferees," the first of its kind in the University. This milestone event embodies our care and support for them as new members of the CA-Pamilya.

We are also grateful to our generous CA-LSG Advisers, whose support makes our campaigns and activities possible. To the CA student body, we assure you that the LSG fund remains secure in our USMECCO Account, and our Office is open for any verification.

We reaffirm our dedication to fostering dignity, inclusivity, and accountability within the College of Agriculture. Together, we build a community where every student feels valued and respected.
