As one chapter comes to a close, we take a moment to look back with gratitude on the countless lives you have touched, the lessons you have shared, and the kindness you have so generously given. Today, we honor a woman whose impact extends far beyond titles and responsibilities, a mentor, an inspiration, and a second mother to many.

To our beloved Chairperson, professor, and second mother in 𝐀𝐝𝐚𝐦𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐲, 𝐌𝐫𝐬. 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐚 𝐁𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐚, thank you for your unwavering dedication and service throughout the past five years. Your dedication and motherly presence have made our journey in the Accountancy Department lighter, brighter, and more meaningful. With your guidance, encouragement, and genuine care, the challenges of being an accounting student became more bearable, and the department became a place where we felt supported, understood, and valued. More than creating an environment that fostered academic excellence, you cultivated a community where students felt heard, appreciated, and inspired to persevere despite the difficulties that came our way.

You served not only as our Chairperson but also as a second mother to every accountancy student. Beyond monitoring our academic performance, you sincerely cared for our mental health, well-being, and personal growth, not only as students and Adamsonians but also as individuals striving to become better versions of ourselves. Your compassion extended far beyond the classroom, and your willingness to listen, understand, and support us during our struggles reminded us that we were never alone in our journey. Through your kindness and patience, you touched countless lives and became a source of comfort and strength for many students.

As you step down from your role as Chairperson, we will continue to carry with us the lessons, values, and words of wisdom you consistently shared. You never allowed us to doubt our capabilities; instead, you encouraged us to believe in our potential and reminded us that there is always room for growth and improvement. Please know that everything you have done for the department was never merely an obligation of your position. Every decision you made was rooted in genuine care, compassion, and a mother's love for her students. You taught us to always look on the brighter side of life and to remember the words you often told us: 𝐋𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐮𝐥.

Your impact on our lives extends far beyond the classroom, and your legacy will remain in the hearts of the students you have guided and inspired. We will always be grateful for your patience, understanding, and unwavering support. We will miss you, 𝐌𝐫𝐬. 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐚 𝐁𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐚, and we will continue to root for you wherever life takes you next. And one day, when we finally earn the three letters after our names, 𝐂𝐏𝐀, a part of that achievement will always belong to you, for you have been one of the people who helped shape us into the professionals we aspire to become.

𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐌𝐚’𝐚𝐦 𝐁𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐚. 💙🤍
