𝗜𝗡 𝗖𝗔𝗦𝗘 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗠𝗜𝗦𝗦𝗘𝗗 𝗜𝗧 | Main character energy completely takes over the center stage. The queens command their solo performances to show exactly what they embody and project their core advocacies. The audience experiences a massive spectrum of raw storytelling that shifts seamlessly from the fierce protest lines of CASS calling out systemic injustice, straight into the deeply emotional roller-skating routine of COE, and toward the theatrical broken-hearted bride of CHS. Every performer channels a distinct frequency to drop a heavy visual statement. They are unleashing their true colors to secure a happy place on the leaderboard and bring perfect harmony to their respective tribes. The script is officially flipped and the spotlight is entirely snatched!

As fellow members of the student press, The Motherboard stands in unwavering solidarity with Ad Infinitum, the official student publication of the College of Science and Mathematics (CSM), in demanding accountability, transparency, and the fair enforcement of guidelines throughout PALAKASAN 2026.

We share the rigorous demands and responsibilities of documenting university events. The recurring failure of the Kataas-taasang Sanggunian ng mga Mag-aaral (KASAMA) and the event organizers to deliver timely and clear updates on venue and schedule changes is a profound disservice to all accredited media partners. Such lapses not only severely hinder our collective workflow, but they also reflect a disregard for the crucial role the campus press plays in keeping the student body informed.

The success of PALAKASAN relies just as much on the competence, equity, and foresight of its leaders as it does on the spirit of the competing colleges.

We unite with Ad Infinitum in calling on the organizing body to immediately address these operational failures, streamline their communication channels, and uphold strictly impartial conflict resolution. We remain resolute in our shared commitment to responsible journalism and the defense of a campus culture built on fairness, respect, and accountability.
