𝐇𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐒 | Leyte Colleges welcomes Its Newest Juris Doctors in 3rd Conferment Rites

With solemnity and pride, Leyte Colleges celebrated its 3rd Conferment Rites at the Leyte Academic Center Annex B in Pawing, Palo, on October 4. The ceremony gathered alumni from various batches, faculty members, the administration, and proud families in an event marked by tradition, honor, and a strong call to service.

The program opened with the procession of the conferees, joined by their loved ones, along with the deans and program heads of the different college departments, the administration, and the school’s administrator and Dean of the College of Law, Atty. Joseph A. Gamez. This was followed by the marching of colors, the singing of the Philippine National Anthem, and an invocation led by the LC Chorale.

In his congratulatory message, Atty. Gamez shared words of both inspiration and responsibility: “Wherever the law takes you, may you always carry with you the heart of service, the pursuit of justice, and the love for the institution that believed in you — the Leyte Colleges.” He emphasized that the legal profession is not just a career but a calling rooted in service to others—highlighting compassion, fairness, integrity, and gratitude to the college that nurtured and trusted them.

The program then proceeded to the presentation of conferees, led by Dr. Josefa Yasmin A. Moriel, Head of Operations and Academics, followed by the investiture of the Juris Doctor degree, conferred by Atty. Gamez.

One of the most anticipated moments was the distribution of diplomas, where Atty. Gamez personally handed each graduate their academic scroll—symbolizing both achievement and responsibility. The graduates then took part in the renewal of their professional pledge, led by Atty. Edgardo B. Esperas, Jr.

The ceremony concluded with the singing of the LC March, led by the LC Chorale, sealing the day with institutional pride and unity. This was followed by photo opportunities for all. The event served as a fitting reminder that each graduate now carries the mission to uphold justice with excellence, integrity, and service.

Happy 23rd Founding Anniversary Birthday Election! Today, we celebrate a true legend, your birth control project, a historic milestone in the fight against accidental birthdays. Your contribution to humanity is immeasurable, mostly because nobody’s sure what we’re measuring.

So, let’s honor your legacy in the right way: with loud greetings, too funny photos, and a suspiciously competitive vote for “BEST PHOTOGRAPHER.” May your founding energy never fade, and your next project involve free photo for all!

𝐇𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐒 | SSC Elections '25: Set in Motion

Momentum for this year’s Supreme Student Council (SSC) General Election is now building as the Meeting of Official Candidates was held on October 3, 1:00 P.M. The gathering took place at the Moot Court, 3rd floor Astilla Building Paterno Campus, spearheaded by the Commission on Election.

The assembly introduced the official candidates and commissioners while laying down the guidelines for the election period. Campaign period is set to begin on October 6 and will continue until October 10. This will be followed by Election Silence on October 11–12, during which no campaign materials will be allowed except for pre-existing social media posts.

Among the highlights was the announcement of the Miting de Avance scheduled for October 10 at both Paterno and San Jose campuses. They will be given one hour to present their platforms and another hour to respond to questions, providing students an avenue to understand the visions and plans of their future leaders.

Candidates were also instructed to assign three poll watchers per party to help safeguard fairness and transparency during the election. The meeting wrapped up with reminders of key dates and responsibilities, officially signaling the start of a spirited and meaningful election season.

With the campaign period fast approaching, the student body can anticipate a lively exchange of ideas, principles, and leadership visions as candidates step forward to earn the trust and votes of their fellow students.

𝐇𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐒 | LC holds First Friday Mass

Students from different college departments and the secondary department, together with the faculty, staffs and the Leyte Colleges Chorale gathered at the Astilla Building to celebrate the first Friday Mass for October, today. The Eucharistic celebration was presided by Rev. Fr. Yeng Tabada, who reminded everyone that each day is the best day for repentance.

Throughout the Mass, chosen staff took part by proclaiming the readings. In his homily, Fr. Tabada reflected on the call to turn away from sin through confession and repentance, inspiring believers to deepen their faith in God and live as witnesses of His mercy and grace.

Fr. Tabada also shared the story of God and the two sinners on Calvary, where one repented and was promised paradise, while the other questioned the Lord Jesus Christ if He was truly the Son of God. These moments truly reflect the goodness and glory of the Divine.

The Mass ended with a special blessing for the school community, inspiring everyone to strengthen their faith, embrace true repentance, and live according to God’s will. The celebration not only enriched the school’s spiritual life but also fostered unity as one family in Christ, committed to walking in His ways.
