𝐑𝐀 𝟏𝟏𝟎𝟓𝟑 𝐢𝐧 𝐅𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬: 𝐂𝐀𝐇𝐒𝐒 𝐑𝐚𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐢-𝐇𝐚𝐳𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐋𝐚𝐰

The College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences (CAHSS) at Northwestern Mindanao State College of Science and Technology (NMSCST) gathered at the PE Academy on September 27 for an Anti-Hazing Seminar led by Mr. Michael Jay V. Jerusalem. The event focused on raising awareness about the Anti-Hazing Act of 2018 (RA 11053) and the legal responsibilities of student organizations.

Mr. Jerusalem explained that RA 11053, an amendment to the 1995 Anti-Hazing Law, strictly prohibits all forms of hazing, including physical or psychological harm, humiliation, and acts resulting in death, r**e, so**my, or mutilation, all punishable by severe penalties.

He emphasized that under RA 11053, all fraternities, sororities, and organizations must register with school authorities and report initiation rites. Officers can be held liable for failing to prevent or report hazing.

He also discussed institutional duties, urging schools to implement awareness campaigns and preventive programs.

Addressing Senator Raffy Tulfo’s controversial statement on “bending the law,” Mr. Jerusalem clarified: “We must not bend the law for convenience, but in the interest of justice, it may be interpreted not to break it, but to uphold its purpose.”

The event ended with an icebreaker Q&A session led by Ms. Yvonne Krisha Lagar, Vice Minister of Dalubbwahan, followed by closing remarks from adviser Ms. Angelie D. Anggot: “Hold respect and dignity in our community. No to violence, yes to respect.”
