| CCJE launches College Day celebration

SOLANA, Cagayan — The College of Criminal Justice Education (CCJE) officially kicked off its College Day on August 27, 2026, at Cagayan State University–Solana Campus, bringing together criminology students and faculty members for a day filled with talent, teamwork, and sportsmanship.

Carrying the theme “Criminology in Motion: Celebrating Talent, Teamwork, and Sportsmanship,” the celebration aimed to showcase the students’ talents, strengthen camaraderie, and promote teamwork and sportsmanship within the CCJE community.

The event also provided students and faculty members with an opportunity to take a break from their academic responsibilities, enjoy various activities, and create meaningful memories together.

In her opening remarks, CCJE Dean Dr. Maricel Palo emphasized the importance of giving students a chance to relax and enjoy themselves amid the demands of academic life. She highlighted that the celebration was organized to provide students with a happy and enjoyable experience where they could temporarily set aside academic stress and simply have fun.

Adding excitement to the celebration, the criminology students were divided into four teams—Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, and Delta—which competed and participated in a series of activities designed to test their skills, creativity, coordination, and teamwork.

Among the activities featured during the celebration were Zumba, Hip-Hop, Budots, Flora and Cards, Tug of War, Sock Race with a Twist, and the much-awaited Miss Gay competition.

Beyond entertainment, the activities encouraged students to build confidence, showcase their talents, strengthen their teamwork, and foster closer relationships with their fellow criminology students. The competitions also provided an avenue for students to demonstrate sportsmanship and camaraderie while enjoying a well-deserved break from their academic responsibilities.

Through the celebration, CCJE highlighted that college life extends beyond classrooms and examinations. The College Day served as an opportunity for students to connect, compete, celebrate their talents, and strengthen the sense of community within the college. | via Jumong Macababbad, Photos by Jemaica Luis,

The morning session featured a series of games, where the four teams faced different challenges that tested their cooperation, strategy, and determination. Beyond the competition, the games provided students with an opportunity to build camaraderie and enjoy the festivities with their fellow CTED students.

In the afternoon, the spotlight shifted to the highly anticipated pageant, where representatives from the four teams showcased their confidence, talents, and stage presence. The event brought an added sense of excitement as students cheered for their respective teams and candidates.

| CTED, nangibabaw sa pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng Wika

SOLANA, Cagayan — Itinanghal na pangkalahatang kampeon ang College of Teacher Education (CTED) matapos makalikom ng 28 puntos sa iba’t ibang patimpalak na isinagawa bilang bahagi ng pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng Wika sa Cagayan State University–Solana Campus noong Agosto 24, 2026.

Nakiisa sa mga kompetisyon ang mga mag-aaral mula sa iba’t ibang kolehiyo, na nagtagisan ng kaalaman at kasanayan sa mga larangan ng wika, panitikan, sining, at musika.

Kabilang sa mga patimpalak ang Tagisan ng Talino, Pagsulat ng Sanaysay, Pagkukuwento, Pag-awit, Pagbuo ng Salawikain, at Paglikha ng Poster.

Nakamit ng CTED ang pinakamataas na kabuuang puntos matapos manguna sa Pagsulat ng Sanaysay, Pagkukuwento, Pag-awit, at Paglikha ng Poster.

Samantala, pumangalawa ang College of Information and Computing Sciences (CICS) na may 21 puntos, habang nagtala naman ang College of Agriculture (CA) ng 19 puntos at nagtapos ang College of Criminal Justice Education (CCJE) na may 17 puntos.

Bukod sa pangkalahatang kampeonato, ipinakita rin ng CICS ang kanilang kahusayan matapos manguna sa Tagisan ng Talino at Pagbuo ng Salawikain. Nagpakita rin ng kompetitibong pagganap ang CA at CCJE sa kani-kanilang sinalihang kategorya.

Layunin ng mga patimpalak na bigyang pagkakataon ang mga mag-aaral na maipamalas ang kanilang talento, kaalaman, at pagkamalikhain habang isinusulong ang pagpapahalaga sa wikang Filipino at kulturang Pilipino.

Sa pamamagitan ng iba’t ibang gawaing pampanitikan at pansining, naipakita ng mga kalahok na nananatiling mahalagang bahagi ng buhay akademiko ang wikang Filipino bilang kasangkapan sa pagpapahayag, paglikha, at pagpapanatili ng kulturang Pilipino.

Sa pagtatapos ng pagdiriwang, higit na naging tampok hindi lamang ang pagkamit ng tropeo at puntos, kundi ang aktibong pakikilahok ng mga mag-aaral sa mga gawaing nagtataguyod sa wika at kulturang Pilipino. | via Rica Jane Macapulay,

SOLANA, Cagayan — Pormal nang sinimulan ng Cagayan State University (CSU) Solana Campus ang pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng Wika 2026 kasabay ng seremonya ng pagtataas ng watawat noong Lunes, Agosto 24, 2026.

Nakiisa ang mga mag-aaral, g**o, at kawani upang markahan ang pagsisimula ng isang buwang selebrasyon na naglalayong itaguyod ang pambansang pagkakakilanlan, kultura, at wikang Filipino.

Sa kaniyang mensahe ng pagtanggap, binigyang-diin ni Engr. Ma. Haidee A. Mabborang, Ph.D., na ang wika ay mahalagang bahagi ng identidad at nagsisilbing daan sa pagpapahayag ng kaisipan, karanasan, at kulturang ipinapasa sa mga susunod na henerasyon.

Inaasahang magpapatuloy ang iba't ibang aktibidad na pangwika at pangkultura sa buong buwan upang magbigay-daan sa mga mag-aaral na maipamalas ang kanilang talento sa pagsasalita, pagsulat, at sining. |

| Ang Balarila ng Isang Estudyante

Sa balarila, may mga salitang kailangang tukuyin bago maunawaan ang isang pangungusap. Sa kolehiyo, natutuhan naming hindi pala sapat na alam mo kung ano ang pangngalan, pandiwa, pang-uri, at pang-abay. Kailangan mo ring malaman kung alin ka sa mga iyon.

Minsan, pakiramdam ko, ako ang pangngalan: isang pangalan lamang sa mahabang talaan ng mga estudyanteng kailangang pumasa. May pangalan. May grado. May numero. May seksiyon. Ngunit sa pagitan ng mga titik at bilang, unti-unting umuusbong ang tanong: Sino nga ba ako?

Pagkatapos, darating ang pandiwa. Kailangang kumilos. Magbasa. Mag-aral. Magsulat. Magpasa. Mag-report. Mag-recite. Magpuyat. Paulit-ulit. Para bang ang pagiging estudyante ay isang pandiwang walang panahunan. Kung saan walang tapos, walang nakaraan,
palaging nasa kasalukuyan.

At kapag napagod ka, hindi puwedeng maging pangngalan ka muna. Kailangan mong kumilos. Kailangan mong magpatuloy. Dahil may deadline. May quiz. May presentation. May pangarap. At higit sa lahat, may takot na baka hindi ka sapat.

Doon naman pumapasok ang pang-uri. Mahusay. Masipag. Matalino. Produktibo. Achiever. Future teacher. Ang daming salitang kailangang maging tayo. Para bang kapag hindi mo naabot ang isang pang-uri, nabawasan din ang halaga ng pangngalan mong sarili.

Kapag hindi mataas ang grado, hindi na ba ako matalino? Kapag hindi ako produktibo, tamad na ba ako? Kapag bumagsak ako, kabiguan na ba ang tawag sa akin At kapag hindi ko na kayang ngumiti habang ginagawa ang lahat, mahina na ba ako?

Samantala, tahimik lamang ang pang-abay. Hindi nito sinasabi kung ano tayo. Sinasabi lamang nito kung paano tayo nagpapatuloy. Dahan-dahan. Minsan. Halos. Pilit. Paulit-ulit.

At marahil, ito ang pinakatapat na bahagi ng pananalita tungkol sa aming mga estudyante. Dahil hindi naman kami laging nagpapatuloy nang buong tapang. Minsan, nagpapatuloy kami nang takot. Minsan, nang umiiyak. Minsan, nang puyat. Minsan, nang hindi alam kung saan patungo. Ngunit nagpapatuloy pa rin. At marahil iyon ang hindi nakikita sa mga grado.

Sa bahaging pangnilalaman, may mga salitang kayang tumayo nang mag-isa. Pangngalan. Pandiwa. Pang-uri. Pang-abay. Ngunit sa tunay na buhay, hindi yata tayo ganoon.

Kailangan natin ng pang-ukol para malaman kung saan tayo patungo. Ng pangatnig upang maiugnay ang isang pagkabigo sa panibagong pagkakataon. Ng panghalip para minsan ay makapagpahinga tayo sa pagiging “ako” at matutong maging “tayo.” At marahil kailangan din natin ng mga salitang pantulong. Yung mga salitang tila maliit, tila hindi mahalaga, ngunit kapag nawala, mag-iiba ang buong pangungusap.

Ganoon pala kami sa kolehiyo. Hindi kami mga pangngalang kailangang laging matatag. Hindi kami mga pandiwang kailangang laging kumikilos. Hindi kami mga pang-uring kailangang laging magaling. Kami ay mga salitang patuloy na hinahanap ang tamang puwesto.

Kahit minsan, mali ang gamit. Minsan, kulang ang kahulugan. Minsan, kailangang burahin at isulat muli. At marahil, ayos lang iyon dahil hindi naman sinusukat ang isang pangungusap sa kung gaano karami ang salitang ginamit nito. Sinusukat ito sa kahulugang nabuo nito.

Kaya kung sa ngayon ay magulo pa ang pangungusap ng buhay namin, kung may mga kuwit na hindi namin alam kung saan ilalagay, mga tuldok na ayaw pa naming tapusin, at mga salitang paulit-ulit naming binubura, baka hindi ibig sabihin noon na mali kami. Baka nangangahulugan lamang na hindi pa tapos ang pangungusap. At kaming mga estudyanteng pagod, nalilito, at nagpupumilit ay patuloy pang sumusulat. | Sulat ni Ronalyn Mae Fuertes, Disenyo ni Darwin Daniel,

"There is no greater nation on earth than our Motherland. No greater people than our own. Serve them with all your heart, with all your might and with all your strength.”

| We commemorate the extraordinary courage and selfless sacrifice of former Senator Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr., whose fearless opposition to dictatorship and Martial Law laid the groundwork for our restored democracy.

On Ninoy Aquino Day, we join the entire Filipino nation in protecting historical truth, defending fundamental freedoms, and demanding justice for every citizen. Amid present-day challenges, may his enduring memory serve as a powerful reminder that the Filipino is worth fighting for—and move us to dedicate our heart, mind, and strength to the service of the Motherland. |
