, the annual Frosh orientation program of De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde, kicked off on Aug. 28 at the Design and Arts Campus, welcoming ID125 students as they officially began their Benildean journey.

Organized by the Center for Student Life’s Student Involvement Unit (CSL-SIU) through the Student Trainers, with support from the Benilde Culture and Arts Unit (CAU), the program was extended until Sept. 3 following a schedule adjustment due to the suspension of classes.

The event featured interactive activities, performances from special interest organizations, breakout sessions led by academic cluster organizations, and a special performance from the Benilde Pep Squad. These activities were designed to foster teamwork, build connections, and guide the newest Benildeans as they enter the community.

Unearth what was once left unfinished in Horizons: Remnants, the official art and design folio of the students of De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde.

Within these stories lie choices unmade, paths untaken, and reflections on time's quiet persistence. Explore these incomplete narratives with Remnants—a chance to reflect, rekindle, and breathe new life into stories left unfinished.

Wander through the fragments of memory, and find new meaning in what still lingers at http://remnants.thebenildean.org/
