Federation of Supreme Student Council - Capiz State University

Day 3 of the FSSC and FFLP Leadership Training-Workshop 2026

The morning began with a Mangrove Planting and Clean-up Drive at Brgy. Buntod, Panay, Capiz. Student leaders and advisers worked hand in hand with Brgy. officials and MENRO officers in planting young mangrove seedlings along the coastal area and collecting waste to help restore and protect the environment. Meanwhile, DRRMO personnel ensured that the area was safe, and secure throughout the activity.

This activity reflects the advocacy of both the Federation of Supreme Student Council and the Federation of Future Leaders of the Philippines, to promote environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and active community service among student leaders.

Afterward, everyone returned to the venue at Villa Consorcia, Pontevedra, Capiz for the closing ceremony. Dr. Efren L. Linan, University President, delivered an inspiring message. Messages were also given by the newly elected and outgoing officers of the FSSC and FFLP. The event was formally closed by Hon. Jinky Mae T. Bargo, Student Regent, who reminded all participants to apply the knowledge, skills, and experiences gained from the training-workshop in serving their respective campuses and communities.

Day 2 of the FSSC & FFLP Leadership Training-Workshop 2026 reminded us that leadership is more than a position but it is about service, commitment, and a responsibility.

Prof. Jumar Q. Apoyo encouraged us to turn struggles into strength: “We all have our own frustrations... embrace that, then focus on things that you’re good at and flourish.” Growth starts when we accept our challenges and use them to thrive.

Atty. Mark D. Borres challenged us on commitment: “If you want to be a great leader, learn the basic things... and be ready to pay the price.” and “I believe you’ve given your one hundred percent in service, when it already hurts.” True service is sacrificial, and excellence demands discipline.

Atty. Margaret Dy grounded us in accountability: “Lead. Serve. Inspire. Repeat. Survive.” and “Your safety is a shared responsibility.” As leaders, we must protect our teams and uphold proper protocols.

Rogin L. Ubamos, Former FSSC VP called us to lead ethically: “use AI wisely and ethically.” We agree, innovation should never come at the cost of respect for others’ craft and our environment.

Julie O. Deslate, Former Student Regent, left an inspiring message: “Lumipad ng mataas, mangarap ng wagas, huwag maging mapagmataas, at manatiling patas sa bawat bukas.” As student leaders, let’s dream big but stay humble and fair in all that we do.

Here’s to CAPSU leaders who choose to innovate, strategize, and lead with purpose. 💙💛
