🌍 INTERNATIONAL MOTHER EARTH DAY

“The Earth does not belong to us—we belong to the Earth.” ✨🌱

This day calls us to pause and reflect on the home we often take for granted.

In every tree, every river, and every breath of air, there is a gentle reminder of how deeply we are connected to the Earth. 🌬️🍃

May we learn to care more, waste less, and protect what sustains us—so that future generations may also live, grow, and thrive in its embrace. 🌱✨

✨ 𝗛𝗜𝗬𝗔𝗦 𝗡𝗚 𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗕𝗨𝗞𝗔𝗦𝗔𝗡 ✨

Bago matapos ang Buwan ng Kababaihan, naimbitahan tayo upang maging tagapagsalita sa isang webinar na may temang: ‘Hiyas ng Kinabukasan: Kababaihan Tungo sa Mapagpalayang Lipunan’ noong Marso 30.

Sa imbitasyon na ito, nabigyan tayo ng oportunidad upang mas butbutin pa ang ugat ng opresyon, pang-aabuso, at pang-aapi sa kababaihan. Tinalakay natin nang mas malalim ang mga isyung kinahaharap ng mga babae mula sa kasaysayan hanggang sa kasalukuyan. Na gaano man karami ang batas, programa, representasyon, at pagkilos para sa kapatan ng mga babae, nagpapatuloy pa rin ang pang-aapi.

Mula rito, makikita natin, na ang kalayaang sinusumbat sa kababaihan ay huwad lamang, dahil nagpapatuloy ang inhustisya at ang panglilimita ng sistema. Walang seguridad ang mga kababaihan sa bawat lugar. Nagpapatuloy pa rin ang kapitalismo sa pang-aabuso sa kababaihan sa iba't ibang espasyo.

Ibig sabihin nito, hindi natatapos sa isang buwan ang ating pakikipaglaban. Hangga't may tunggalian sa uri at sa ari, hindi tayo dapat makampante.

Patuloy tayong humakbang paabante!

Isa ito sa mga pahayag na iniwan ng ating pambansang bayani—isang paalala na ang wika at panitikan ay kaluluwa ng ating pagkakakilanlan. Sa bawat patak ng tinta at kuskos ng pluma, may tinig na naghahangad marinig.

Sa bawat pahina, may alaala na patuloy na nabubuhay. Sa bawat kuwento, may kasaysayang muling nababalikan. Sa bawat tula, may damdaming hindi kayang ikubli. Sa bawat elehiya, may lungkot na marahang isinasalaysay. Sa bawat salawikain at sawikain, may karunungang minana sa nakaraan.

Kaya ngayong 𝐁𝐮𝐰𝐚𝐧 𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐤𝐚𝐧, ating ipagdiwang ang yaman ng kulturang Pilipino—isang panitikang patuloy na humuhubog sa ating isip, puso, at pagkatao.

Huwag nating hayaang sa elehiya na lamang maisulat ang mga ideyang dapat ay naipapahayag nang malaya sa papel. Huwag nating hayaang manahimik ang mga kuwentong dapat pang marinig, at malimot ang mga aral na dapat pang ipamana.

Sapagkat ang panitikan ay hindi lamang binubuo ng mga salita, kundi ng damdamin, karanasan, at kasaysayang dumadaloy sa ating pagkatao. Sa bawat akdang binabasa at isinusulat, muling nabubuhay ang diwa ng pagiging Pilipino.

Patuloy tayong magsulat, magbasa, at magmahal sa sariling atin. Dahil habang may panitikan, may bansang patuloy na humihinga at lumalaya. ✍️🍃

🇵🇭 ARAW NG KAGITINGAN

“In the face of adversity, courage becomes our legacy.” ✨

On this Day of Valor, we remember the bravery of those who stood with strength in the midst of hardship.

Their sacrifice is a reminder that courage is not the absence of fear, but the will to stand firm despite it.

May we carry their legacy in our daily lives with always choosing integrity, resilience, and love for our country in the ways we can. 🇵🇭💗

CAS Takes the International Research Stage

The College of Arts and Sciences proudly congratulates Dr. Lourdes P. Jusay from the Psychology Department for presenting her research at The 12th Asian Conference on Education and International Development (ACEID2026), organized by the International Academic Forum (IAFOR).

The conference was held on March 22–27, 2026 at the Tokyo International Forum and Toshi Center Hotel, Tokyo, Japan, bringing together scholars and professionals from across the globe to share research and foster international collaboration.

Dr. Jusay presented their paper titled “Marital Obligations, Psychological Incapacity and Employee Performance: Basis for an Intervention Program,” offering valuable insights on the intersection of personal, psychological, and professional factors, and proposing an evidence-based approach for intervention in the workplace.

This achievement highlights the College’s strong commitment to research, global engagement, and academic excellence.

We celebrate this milestone and look forward to more impactful contributions from our CAS faculty.

“In every moment, there was purpose. In every voice, there was power.” ✨

March was more than a celebration—it was a statement.

A statement of strength, of courage, and of the unwavering power of women and the youth.

Through every discussion, every story, and every voice, we were reminded that change is not distant—it begins with us.

Here’s a look back at the moments that inspired, empowered, and moved us forward.
May we carry with us the lessons, the courage, and the hope to continue what we have started. 🌿💜🔥

“He is not here; He has risen.” – Luke 24:6

From darkness, light breaks through.
From silence, hope rises again.

Easter Sunday reminds us that no ending is ever final, and that life can begin anew in ways we never imagined.

As we celebrate this day of renewal, may our hearts be filled with so much joy, humbly faith, and the courage to rise, again and again, no matter what we have been through. 🌿✨

“Be still, and know that I am God.” – Psalm 46:10 🖤

This day rests in silence, between sorrow and hope.

Black Saturday invites us to wait, to sit in the stillness, and to trust even when answers are not yet clear.

In this graceful space, may we find peace in surrender, strength in patience, and faith in the unseen with believing that even in the darkest moments, something greater is gently unfolding.

✝️ “It is finished.” – John 19:30

On this solemn day, we remember a love that gave everything, even unto suffering and death.

In the silence of the cross, we are reminded of the weight of sacrifice and the depth of grace that asks for nothing in return.

As we pause and reflect, may we learn to face our own struggles with strength, to forgive as we are forgiven, and to hold on to faith even in moments that feel heavy and uncertain.
