The University Student Council (USC) Constitution Committee reached a major milestone in campus governance on May 9, 2026, with the official approval of the 2026 Student Constitution of West Visayas State University on its first reading.

This success follows a rigorous series of meetings that began as early as January, spearheaded by the University Constitution Committee. To ensure a precise and modern framework, a specialized Technical Working Group (TWG) was formed and tasked with the primary drafting of the document. Both the TWG and the University Constitution Committee are chaired by USC Vice Chairperson Matthew Psalms Gonzaga, whose dual leadership has been central to overseeing the constitutional revision process.

With the first reading successfully concluded, the official draft has been released to the public for a comprehensive review by the entire student body. The council emphasizes that this document is intended to be a reflection of collective student interests, urging all Taga-West to read and reflect on the proposed changes.

By making the draft accessible at this early stage, the committee aims to foster transparency and ensure that the final version of the constitution is shaped by the people it serves.
Engagement from the student community is highly encouraged as the process moves forward.

To facilitate this, the University Student Council has announced that all comments, suggestions, and specific questions will be addressed during an upcoming Studentsโ€™ Town Hall. While the exact schedule for this event is yet to be finalized, it will serve as the primary platform for open dialogue and democratic participation.

In the meantime, students may access the full draft through the official link provided by the council to prepare their feedback for the forthcoming assembly.

It is noted that this movement for constitutional reform underwent continuous and extensive processes before being approved, marking significant progress in the journey.

The official batch for Binibining Pilipinas 2026 has been set, and among the contenders is Patricia Lynn Beerda, representing Iloilo City and officially designated as Candidate No. 31. The competition recently gained momentum with a public fashion show held at Gateway Mall 2 on May 8, where Beerda and her fellow candidates made their first major appearances before the press and pageant fans.

Beerda enters the national arena with a diverse background in both local education and international law. A graduate of ILS of West Visayas State University (WVSU), where she completed the STEM program with Honors in 2019, she then continue her roots from Iloilo to an extensive academic career in Europe. She holds a Bachelor of Laws (Honours)with specialization in International and European Law from the University of Groningen and the City University of London, and most recently earned a Master of Laws (Cum Laude) in International Business Law from Tilburg Law School.

Beyond her academic credentials, Beerda is a seasoned figure in modeling and pageant industry. Her history includes serving as Maanyag nga llongga 2016, Miss Teen Iloilo 2017, Miss Teen Philippines Western Visayas 2018, Miss Teen Philippines 1st Runner-Up in 2019, and more recently being crowned Miss Iloilo 2026 Heartfelt Queen (Miss Iloilo Paraw Binibini). Her educational background and pageant success remark in continuing her advocacy.

As the Binibining Pilipinas Charities, Inc. (BPCI) prepares to announce the final coronation dates, the focus remains on the candidates' ability to balance grace with substance. For Beerda, the journey from a WVSU honor student to a legal professional on the national stage represents an interplay of traditional pageantry and modern academic achievement. With the competition heading to its peak the Ilongga lawyer is now focused on the next phases of the pageant in her bid for the national title.

Standing prominently along the highway of Luna Street in La Paz, the almost established College of Law Building of West Visayas State University upholds more than just academic expansion but a reflection of the universityโ€™s growing reputation for excellence in legal education.

Year 2020, when WVSU opens its law school program and has been steadily building a name in the field of legal studies after achieving a 100% passing rate in 2025 Bar Examinations. In a span of years, the institution achieved this remarkable milestoneโ€”a feat that strengthened its standing among emerging law schools in the country.

The College of Law Building is expected to provide an equal opportunity for local aspiring lawmakers not to depart the city just to have access to quality education, a modern and conducive learning environment equipped for instruction, legal research, and academic collaboration. As the structure nears completion, students and faculty members look forward to having a dedicated space that matches the universityโ€™s growing achievements in legal education.

Currently, Building 1 is undergoing finishing works and system installations to ensure that the facility will be fully equipped and ready for student use. Meanwhile, construction of Building 2 continues and is set to complement the first structure. Once completed, the two buildings will be connected through a modern pedestrian bridge, further enhancing accessibility and campus connectivity.

As its doors prepare to open, the College of Law Building stands as a testament to the universityโ€™s vision of producing competent, principled, and service-oriented lawyers for Western Visayas and beyond.

ILOILO CITY โ€” A radio drama produced by 2nd-year BA Broadcasting students has gained widespread online attention after reaching millions of views in less than 24 hours, highlighting the power of student storytelling beyond the classroom.

Titled โ€œ๐‘ด๐‘ฎ๐‘จ ๐‘ฉ๐‘จ๐‘ณ๐‘ผ๐‘ซ ๐‘บ๐‘จ ๐‘ฏ๐‘ผ๐‘ต๐‘จ๐‘บ๐‘จ๐‘ตโ€ directed by Shania Sermonia, the production tells a compelling story of family, sacrifice, poverty, and injustice experienced by fisherfolk communities. Inspired by firsthand observations during an immersion in Barotac Viejo, Iloilo, the radio drama sheds light on the daily struggles of marginalized sectors, particularly fishermen and laborers.

According to the production team, the storyline was developed through multiple script revisions and collaborative efforts among student writers Jamalee Ghen Jarana, Kheren Penides, Khalil Zayed Sanchez, Karl Jaesop Sapul, and Shania Sermonia. Despite technical challenges and personal sacrifices, the group remained committed to producing a story grounded in social realities.

The team admitted they did not expect the overwhelming response, describing the milestone of reaching one million views in just 22 hours as both shocking and rewarding. Beyond entertainment, the creators emphasized that the project aims to raise awareness on the struggles of fisherfolk and laborers while advocating for justice and better treatment of marginalized communities.

From a classroom production to a viral online success, their radio drama performance stands as a testament to how student-led media can spark conversations and bring overlooked stories to a wider audience.
