Tandaan ninyo ang sakripisyo ng mga magulang ninyo kung bakit kayo pinadala dito sa pamantasang ito,” said President Abella. Moreover, a new set of elected USSC Officials took an oath of office recognizing their vital role in advancing the welfare of students. The first day of SIKAD was marked by the enthusiastic participation of students in various activities, such as the CLS-U Matter: Health and Wellness Fair at CLSU Infirmary and Happy Tummy para sa Sielesyuans, a feeding program during the opening ceremony. The BIZZ-Arangkada Bazaar also provided several students with the opportunity to display their entrepreneurial skills.
