In the spirit of compassion and community service, the North Eastern Mindanao State University (NEMSU) - San Miguel Campus held a Mass Blood Donation Drive on September 17, encouraging members of the university community to share the gift of life through voluntary blood donation.

The activity was conducted in response to the request of the Provincial Blood Coordinating Council for NEMSU campuses to participate in a province-wide Blood Letting Program aimed at helping augment the availability of safe and adequate blood for Surigaonons.

The bloodletting activity was facilitated by the Philippine Red Cross, with assistance from the university's nurse, Tralou Salcedo, RN, who helped support the medical needs and coordination of the activity.

More than a medical procedure, the blood donation drive served as a reminder that a simple act of generosity can become a lifeline for patients in need. Each voluntary donation contributes to the collective effort to maintain an adequate blood supply for emergencies, medical procedures, and other situations requiring transfusion.

The initiative also received support from the Provincial Government of Surigao del Sur, through the initiative of Provincial Governor Johnny T. Pimentel. As a token of appreciation, the provincial government will allocate at least four kilograms of rice for every non-remunerated blood donor who participates in the program.

The incentive underscores the provincial government's appreciation for individuals who willingly donate blood without monetary compensation, while reinforcing the importance of sustained community participation in maintaining the province's blood supply.

For the NEMSU-San Miguel community, the activity reflected the university's continuing commitment to service beyond the classroom, bringing together students, personnel, and other members of the community in an effort that directly contributes to the welfare of fellow Surigaonons.

With every successful donation, the message remains clear: one person's generosity can give another person a chance to live. | via Jan Rix Sabiaga

The Peer Facilitators' circle of North Eastern Mindanao State University (NEMSU)–San Miguel Campus spearheaded the Agri Skills and Wellness Campaign on September 16, 2026, bringing together Diploma of Agricultural Technology (DAT) students for a day focused on agricultural learning, meaningful connections, and mental wellness.

The campaign provided students with an opportunity to strengthen their knowledge in agriculture while recognizing the importance of maintaining healthy minds and positive relationships in navigating the demands of student life.

The activity opened with a welcome message from Sunshine C. Galdiano, RPm, PFC Adviser of NEMSU-San Miguel Campus, who formally welcomed the participants and set the tone for the day's activities.

An inspirational message was then delivered by Dr. Marlon M. Garrigues, Assistant Campus Director, and Raymundo M. Itable, OSWD Head, encouraging the students to actively participate in the activities and make use of the opportunities provided for their personal and academic development.

To encourage interaction and build connections among participants, Ms. Ivy M. Mendiola, PFC Member, facilitated the Connect Activity, allowing the students to engage with one another in a dynamic and supportive environment.

The campaign also featured a technical discussion entitled “Fungi in Action: The Microscopic World of Entomopathogens,” facilitated by Romnick Guillermo, RAgR, TVET Coordinator. The session introduced participants to the role of entomopathogenic fungi and their potential applications in agricultural practices, particularly in understanding biological approaches to managing insect pests.

Following the technical session, Ms. Cheriel D. Pol, PFC Member, led the SOS Activity, which further encouraged participation, interaction, and engagement among the DAT students.

Beyond agricultural skills, the campaign placed emphasis on the importance of mental and emotional resilience. Ms. Pamela Quevedo, RPm, Instructor 1, facilitated the session “Resilient Minds: Building Strength and Healthy Coping in Today’s Generation.” The discussion highlighted the value of developing healthy coping strategies, strengthening personal resilience, and recognizing the importance of seeking support when facing challenges.

The activity concluded with closing remarks from Mr. Jollius M. Hayahay, PFC Mayor of NEMSU-San Miguel Campus, marking the end of a campaign that brought together agricultural education and wellness initiatives.

Through the Agri Skills and Wellness Campaign, the Peer Facilitators emphasized that preparing students for their future careers goes beyond technical knowledge. For aspiring agricultural professionals, developing practical skills while building resilience, healthy relationships, and personal well-being can also form part of the foundation for meaningful and sustainable service to the agricultural sector.

𝗗𝗔-𝗔𝗠𝗔𝗗 𝗩𝗜𝗦𝗜𝗧𝗦 𝗡𝗘𝗠𝗦𝗨-𝗦𝗔𝗡 𝗠𝗜𝗚𝗨𝗘𝗟 𝗧𝗢 𝗔𝗗𝗩𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗣𝗢𝗦𝗘𝗗 𝗜𝗡𝗖𝗨𝗕𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗖𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗘𝗥

Representatives from the Department of Agriculture - Agribusiness and Marketing Assistance Division (DA-AMAD) visited the North Eastern Mindanao State University (NEMSU) - San Miguel Campus on September 16, 2026, to check the proposed site for a new project and follow up on the campus’ Young Farmers Challenge (YFC) Intercollegiate - Regional Awardee, NutriSOYASMS.

The visit centered on the proposed establishment of an Incubation Center at NEMSU-San Miguel Campus, a project with a proposed funding of 2.5 million intended to support the development and expansion of the campus’ youth-led agribusiness initiatives.

The proposed project is linked to the campus’ achievement as a YFC Intercollegiate Awardee through NutriSOYASMS, a student-led soy milk enterprise developed by NEMSU-San Miguel students.

NEMSU-San Miguel is set to become the first university to receive a project of this scale under the YFC initiative at the intercollegiate level, with the project funded through the DA - CARAGA.

The project was discussed during a meeting between the DA-AMAD delegation and NEMSU-San Miguel official. Dr. Marlon M. Garrigues, Assistant Campus Director, joined the discussion with the DA-AMAD Personnel led by Lynn Pareñas, DA-AMAD Chief.

Following the discussion, the delegation proceeded to the proposed project site to assess the area where the Incubation Center is planned to be established.

The proposed facility is envisioned to provide a space where youth-led agribusiness initiatives can be further developed, supported, and potentially transformed into sustainable enterprises.

For NEMSU-San Miguel, the proposed Incubation Center marks another step in translating student innovation and achievement into opportunities that can benefit the university community and strengthen youth participation in agriculture and agribusiness.

The visit also underscored the continuing partnership between the university and government agencies in supporting young people who are pursuing agriculture not only as an academic field but also as an avenue for entrepreneurship and community development.

As the proposed Incubation Center moves toward implementation, the YFC recognition of NutriSOYASMS continues to open opportunities for NEMSU-San Miguel students to turn their ideas into enterprises, building from a student innovation toward a larger platform for agricultural entrepreneurship. | via Jan Rix Sabiaga

With a shared sense of responsibility and commitment to public service, the North Eastern Mindanao State University–San Miguel Campus (NEMSU-SM) joined fellow NEMSU campuses in the University-Wide Simultaneous Renewal of Oath on September 14, 2026.

The renewal of oath was administered by Dr. Nemesio G. Loayon, SUC President III, through Zoom, allowing the activity to be conducted simultaneously across the University's campuses. The ceremony brought the NEMSU community together in reaffirming its commitment to the principles, responsibilities, and values expected of members of a public higher education institution.

At NEMSU-SM, the activity formed part of the campus' morning assembly and took place before the Flag-Raising Ceremony. Faculty, staff, and students gathered as the University community collectively renewed its pledge of service and responsibility.

Following the renewal of oath, various office heads delivered important announcements and updates to the campus community. The announcements provided students, faculty, and staff with relevant information concerning university activities, programs, and other matters requiring their attention and participation.

More than a ceremonial undertaking, the simultaneous renewal of oath served as a reminder that public service is sustained through accountability, integrity, and a shared commitment to the communities the University serves.

The activity also coincided with the celebration of 126 years of dedicated and meaningful public service, giving the NEMSU-San Miguel community an opportunity to reflect on the enduring value of service and its role in strengthening institutions and communities.

As the NEMSU-San Miguel Campus stood alongside the wider University community, the occasion highlighted a collective commitment to carry out its responsibilities with purpose, grounded in service, unity, and dedication to the public.
