BPA Students Witness Memorandom of Agreement Signing Between CHMSU Talisay and CHR

Bachelor of Public Administration (BPA) students witnessed the signing of a Memorandum of Agreement with the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) on May 22, 2026, at the CHMSU Talisay (Main) Campus Function Hall.

The agreement formally establishes a collaborative partnership dedicated to promoting and strengthening a sustainable culture of human rights through education, research, and active community engagement. By combining institutional efforts and shared advocacy, the partnership aims to raise awareness, encourage critical understanding, and empower individuals to uphold the principles of dignity, equality, and justice within society. With the Akobatayan, we were informed of valuable and essential information that deepened our understanding, broadened our perspective, and highlighted the importance of staying knowledgeable and aware.

As election season approaches, discussions about leadership, governance, and public responsibility once again take center stage. Behind every ballot cast lies the electoral process — a system that allows citizens to choose leaders who will represent their voices and shape the direction of the nation. Understanding this process remains essential in preserving democracy and encouraging responsible citizenship.

Through understanding the electoral process, citizens — especially the youth — become more aware of the importance of participation in governance. Informed voting not only strengthens democracy but also ensures that leadership remains accountable to the people it serves.

Inside the crowded hall filled with students, teachers, and youth leaders, one message echoed strongly throughout the symposium: the youth hold an important role in protecting and promoting human rights. "Ang kabataan ang pag-asa ng bayan," a timeless statement from Jose Rizal, continues to resonate in modern society as the youth remain powerful voices for change, justice, and progress. Indeed, the statement remains relevant in today's generation.

Students of the Bachelor of Public Administration at Carlos Hilado Memorial State University brought energy and warmth to the campus on the morning of May 14, 2026 as PE Day and Culminating Activity was held.

First and second year students arrived early, full of laughter and friendly banter, ready to test their skills and support each other in a series of team based activities.
Second year BPA students took over the volleyball courts with fast moving rallies, quick passes, and high fives that turned every point into a small celebration. First year students joined the Hyrox race, a fast paced fitness challenge that mixed running with short bursts of strength exercises, and pushed through fatigue while clapping and cheering for one another. The sense of camaraderie was clear, as students ran, jumped, and played not just to win, but to share the experience together.

Faculty advisers and student organizers worked steadily behind the scenes, making sure games ran on time and that safety stayed a priority. Volunteers helped wherever needed, from guiding participants to the right stations to keeping the mood upbeat. With everyone giving their best, the campus felt warm, lively, and full of connection. The event turned PE Day into a reminder that growth, teamwork, and fun can all happen in the same place at the same time.
