These words captured the presence of the Bachelor of Secondary Education (BSEd) English sophomores as they stepped into the spotlight for the Supreme Search for Greek God and Goddess at the Audio-Visual Room (AVR) of Pangasinan State Universityโ€“Sta. Maria Campus on November 28.

Guided by their Course Adviser Raphael G. Dela Cruz, the event turned the campus into a living myth, giving students the stage to display their detailed costumes, steady confidence, and sharp wit.

More than a showcase, the pageant also served as a requirement for their Mythology and Folklore course.

The celebration began with the Parade of the Gods and Goddesses, where students walked around the campus in their crafted ensembles, each embodying their chosen deity with poise and presence.

The pageant proper followed, testing the contenders through a vibrant production number, runway walk, and a question-and-answer portion that challenged their creativity and understanding of Greek lore.

By the end of the divine search, Jay Mark Orcales, portraying Ares, and Camille Soliven, portraying Demeter, rose above the pantheon and claimed the titles of Supreme God and Goddess.

Indeed, the event did more than crown winners, it brought mythology to life. Through their performances, costumes, and confidence, the students proved that Greek stories remain timeless, especially when revived with creativity and passion.

Eleven barangay secretaries from Santa Maria, Pangasinan convened at the Senator Leticia Ramos Shahani Convention Hall for the continuation of the ECT-WRITE Project: Equipping the Community thru Teaching, Writing Rudiments in the Technology-Driven Era, on November 20, 2025.

Aligned with Sustainable Development Goals 4 (Quality Education), 10 (Reduced Inequalities), and 17 (Partnerships for Goals), the initiative aims to strengthen the writing competence of barangay secretaries by providing a seminar on the content and format of commonly issued barangay certifications and by standardizing barangay-issued documents.

The program was spearheaded by Annabelle L. Caser, Chairperson of the Bachelor of Secondary Education Program, who also delivered the lecture content.

Project leader and facilitators were expected to monitor the barangay secretaries' progress through barangay visitations in December.

The program was a continuation of the first part, which was conducted last October 30.
