The Bullโs Eye concluded its inaugural year of operations through PAGTAPOS: Year-End General Assembly, held at Room 718 of NU Cebu on May 29. The formal gathering was presided over by Dnvr Cliedzray L. Gajete, the publicationโs outgoing Editor-in-Chief, to officially close the chapter of Academic Year 2025โ2026.
The year-end assembly served as a venue to celebrate, reflect on, and acknowledge the publicationโs milestone first year of operation while revisiting its major achievements and accomplishments throughout the academic year. A total of 19 participants, composed of editorial board members, department heads, and staff members, attended the event to assess the publicationโs progress and organizational development.
During the session, the body evaluated past media coverages, member performance, and editorial updates. Comprehensive executive reports were likewise presented by Gajete and outgoing Managing Editor Althea Kaithlyn U. Cabilte, highlighting the publicationโs operational milestones, organizational growth, and future directions.
In a bittersweet segment of the assembly, Gajete and Cabilte formally submitted their resignations as they prepared to conclude their terms as executive officers. They were joined by Head Correspondent Carl Jeoff T. Gomonit and Head Layout Artist Keziah C. Tenio, who also officially vacated their leadership positions. The departing editors shared heartfelt messages of gratitude, reflecting on the challenges and successes they experienced during the publicationโs foundational year while expressing appreciation to the entire team for their dedication and commitment.
One of the highlights of the assembly was the formal announcement and introduction of The Bullโs Eyeโs newly appointed Executive Editorial Board and Editorial Board officers for the upcoming operational year.
John Emmanuel C. Igdalino, formerly the Sports Writing Section Head, was appointed as the new Editor-in-Chief. Joining him in the executive lineup are Cheska Jec T. Abatayo, who remains in office as Associate Editor-in-Chief; Jon Vincent Raul F. Nacua, formerly the Science and Technology Writing Section Head, who assumes the position of Managing Editor; and Clayde Josephe S. Lazarte, who continues to serve as Managing Editor for Finance.
The official appointments and introductions of the incoming student editors were delivered by Student Development and Activities Office (SDAO) Coordinator Lara C. Lleรฑos-Baculi. The transition process was facilitated in accordance with the publicationโs Constitution and By-Laws to ensure continuity of leadership and operations.
As the assembly drew to a close, the outgoing leaders expressed their confidence in the capabilities, vision, and commitment of the newly appointed officers to lead the publication to greater heights. They emphasized that while the pioneering leaders may have stepped down from their positions, the transition marks not an ending but a continuation of the mission and legacy they helped establishโpassing the torch to a new generation of student journalists who will carry The Bullโs Eye forward in the years to come.
