In a spirit of collaboration and shared commitment, the UNP College of Criminal Justice Education held its Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) General Assembly for the Academic Year 2025โ€“2026 on October 24, 2025, at the CCJE Function Hall.

Following the deanโ€™s message was the Introduction of the College Personnel, including the dedicated faculty and staff of CCJE, the Criminology Studentsโ€™ Organization, and The Defender, the official college publication.

The UNP College of Criminal Justice Education successfully conducted a Consultation Meeting with parents and 4th Year Bachelor of Science in Criminology students on October 24, 2025, at the CCJE Function Hall. The gathering aimed to discuss important details regarding the On-the-Job Training (OJT) and Educational Tour for the academic year 2025โ€“2026.

The program began with an Invocation or Prayer, followed by the singing of the National Anthem and the UNP Hymn.

In her Opening Remarks, Dr. Sina Bestre, Dean of the College, warmly welcomed everyone and expressed her heartfelt gratitude to the parents and guardians who took the time to attend the meeting. She congratulated the 4th-year criminology students for reaching the final stage of their baccalaureate journey and encouraged them to continue striving for excellence and perseverance as they move closer to their professional goals.

The UNP Vision, Mission, and Quality Policy were then presented by Asst. Prof. Myline Aleson, the College Assistant Dean. Her presentation emphasized the universityโ€™s commitment to providing quality education and producing competent, ethical, and service-oriented professionals.

One of the highlights of the meeting was the experience-sharing session by Mr. Leo France Obebe, a BS Criminology alumnus. He enthusiastically recounted his Educational Tour experience, including visits to significant law enforcement institutions such as the Philippine National Police Academy (PNPA). He shared how the tour helped him see the real-life applications of criminology theories and classroom lessons. Mr. Obebe also mentioned that some of the institutions they visited has their own fire brigades and law enforcement departments, which gave them a deeper understanding of the diverse career paths in the field of criminal justice.

Next, Assoc. Prof. Lorna Navarro, the collegeโ€™s OJT Coordinator, discussed the rules, requirements, and regulations related to the On-the-Job Training. She also detailed the fees, uniforms, and guidelines that students must comply with during their training. Furthermore, Assoc. Prof. Navarro presented the educational tour plan, including the list of destinations to be visited and the expected learnings and experiences that students will gain through the exposure.

Dr. Arlan Reburon, the Program Head of the BS Criminology, delivered his Closing Remarks. He congratulated the students for reaching this milestone, expressed appreciation to the parents and guardians for their continuous support, and extended his gratitude to the CCJE Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) for sponsoring the snacks during the meeting.

In my capacity as the Director of the Public Information Service and the National Spokesperson of the Bureau of Fire Protection, with all humility and gratitude, I take pride and honor to be one of the recipients of this yearโ€™s Floro Crisologo Outstanding Alumni Award. I would also like to specially mention the College of Criminology where I graduated and the Advance ROTC Program that honed me with knowledge, skills, abilities, and reputation well โ€“ enough to make significant change for the benefit of our fellow countrymen.

These humble achievements are the most accurate manifestations of our Alma Materโ€™s impact in every life of all those students who entered and left the portals of this prestigious university after their graduation. When I first walked through the gates of this University, I was not yet the person your see today. I was only a young dreamer โ€“ unsure of what the future would hold, but certain of one thing: that I wanted to serve with purpose greater than myself.

The College of Criminology did not just teach me the science of law enforcement and public safety; it taught me the ethics of service, the value of integrity, and the power of perseverance. Every lecture inside the classroom, every sleepless night reviewing for examinations, and every training we endured prepared us not just for a profession โ€“ but for a calling. That calling led me to the Bureau of Fire Protection โ€“ an agency built on discipline, bravery and compassion.

After graduating in the Philippine National Police Academy, in my more than twenty-five (25) years in the fire service, I have seen the valor of our firefighters who ran towards danger while the others were eluding. I have witnessed the strength of the service that transcends fear into a strong will. The same strength that I first learned here in this university.

This recognition is not mine alone. It belongs to every professor, faculty, and instructor who believed in me, to every classmate who walked with me in this journey, and to this University that molded my spirit, character and values. To my mentors โ€“ thank you for teaching us that criminology is not just about enforcing the law, but about upholding justice, truth and humanity. To the students listening today โ€“ remember: your degree is not just a piece of paper. It is a pledge. A pledge to use your acquired knowledge and skills to protect and serve, and to lead with courage and honor.

In our Bureau we often say: โ€œAng apoy ay hindi kaaway โ€“ ito ay paalalaโ€ . A reminder that even in destruction, there is light. In the same way every trial we face โ€“ every failure and every setback โ€“ become a fire that refines us and not consume us. Today, as I accept this recognition with deep gratefulness and renewed commitment โ€“ to continue serving our people with integrity, transparency, and kindness; to be a flame that illuminates, not burns; and to carry the proud name of the University of Northern Philippines wherever my duty takes me.

To my fellow alumni awardees โ€“ may we never forget our roots. To our students -- our future professionals โ€“ may you rise beyond titles and ranks, and serve with strength and heart. And to my beloved Alma Mater โ€“ the University of Northern Philippines, thank you for igniting the flame that became my life long light of my service to God, country and people. | ๐‘ญ๐‘บ๐‘บ๐‘ผ๐‘ท๐‘ป ๐‘ฉ๐’๐’๐’Š๐’‡๐’‚๐’„๐’Š๐’ ๐‘ช๐’‚๐’“๐’•๐’‚
