Happy Birthday to Sir Mike Flores, our CLSC Auditor!

Sir Mike is that kind of person who still looks fresh even when law school has already drained everyone else. Kind, smart, neat, and easy to be around, he brings that kind of calm presence.

The CLSC term has not officially gone full chaos mode yet, so there are no reports, receipts, or liquidation papers to audit for now. But as early as today, we already know one thing: our Auditor is giving clean, capable, and dependable. Very fresh. Very composed. Very “I have my documents in order” energy.

More than that, Sir Mike has the kind of personality that makes people feel comfortable. He may be quiet at times, but his presence is felt — steady, genuine, and always pleasant. The kind of person you would trust with numbers, responsibilities, and probably even your snacks.

May this year bring you more wisdom, more wins, more good days, and fewer reasons to overthink. May you continue to stay grounded, kind, and sharp as you take on another year of law school, life, and this new chapter with the Council.

And because we believe in tradition, may there also be more meryenda moments ahead — respectfully, lovingly, and with no pressure. Slight lang.

Happy Birthday, Sir Mike! The CLSC family is glad to have you with us as we begin this new term.

Love,
CLSC Family

Goodness gracious! Congratulations!

POV: You applied to law school and now your Gmail refresh button is fighting for its life.

To all aspiring DMMMSU College of Law freshmen waiting for the results: breathe in, breathe out, and maybe stop checking your email every 2 minutes. The suspense is real, the overthinking is valid, and the “what if” thoughts are probably already doing their opening statement.

Whether you are the millennial “in limine, fiat justitia ruat caelum” type or the Gen Z “slay, manifesting, future attorney cutie” type, one thing is certain: the waiting era is part of the journey.

For now, keep your inbox ready, your prayers steady, and your law school dreams alive.

Good luck, future Phoenixes. May the odds, the emails, and the results be ever in your favor. 💜⚖️

𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐁𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐝𝐚𝐲, Dean 𝐅𝐞𝐥𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚 𝐃. 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐭!

Some people enter a room with beauty. Some with brilliance. Dean Camat has both.

With her youthful glow, sweet smile, and calm presence, one may easily think she is all charm — but in class, she proves that behind the grace is a sharp legal mind, a commanding mastery of the law, and the kind of wisdom every law student hopes to learn from.

Our Remedial Law Goddess, Dean of Saint Louis College- College of Law, and esteemed professor at DMMMSU College of Law, she continues to inspire us with her intelligence, dedication, and heart for the legal profession.

Happy Birthday, Dean Camat! May your day be filled with love, joy, and beautiful things.

From statutes to stardust, you’re serving leader energy with comeback vibes, proving law school can be just as iconic as a concert encore. Keep shining, because you’re basically one of the council’s ultimate bias.
